There are several ways you can make a mouth tab. A simple mouth tab is here. It works well for clinics and one or two time uses. Be sure to make a new one for each person.

USA Archery has produced a series of freely available videos on adaptive archery. You can view them here.

Disabled Sports USA and USA Archery worked together, and put together an Adaptive Archery Manual. It was funded by the VA Adaptive Sports Grant. Click here to download it from the USA Archery website. You can also download it on the Disabled Sports USA website.
