This book is for you if...

🌱 Structured beginner

You're learning to shoot and want to start from sound technical foundations — not habits you'll have to undo in six months.

🎢 Inconsistent shooter

Your shooting is "sometimes brilliant, often disappointing". You don't know why. This book identifies the source of that inconsistency.

📉 Stagnating competitor

You've played tournaments for years but you're no longer progressing. The method gets you off the plateau with targeted exercises.

🏅 Club shooter

You want a structured tool to train alone or with your club, with measurable goals and statistics.

📋 Coach

You run a school or a group. The 100 exercises are adaptable to all levels, with junior and elite variants.

What this book contains

📋 THE 8 PARTS OF THE MANUAL
  1. The shooter's foundations — role, profiles, complete biomechanics, the 3 types of shooting
  2. Adapting to all conditions — terrains (hard, wet, sandy, sloping), equipment, weather
  3. Library of 100 numbered exercises — 7 blocks from technical foundation to elite simulation
  4. Training programmes by level — Beginner, Confirmed, Elite with weekly schedules
  5. Video analysis & self-correction — capture angles, posture/trajectory analysis grid
  6. Tracking & advanced statistics — success rate, carreau rate, progression charts, quarterly review
  7. The professional shooter's mindset — pre-shot routine, managing 12-12, emotional stabilisation
  8. The mistakes that kill a shooter — the 7 traps to avoid and their correction plan

Part by part — what awaits you

P1 The modern shooter's foundations It all starts with understanding the exact role of the shooter in a triplette — not just "the one who shoots". Difference shooter/pointer/middle, offensive/strategic/conservative profiles, defensive vs offensive shooting. Then the complete biomechanics: foot position, grounding, alignment, pendular motion, wrist role, height by distance, error analysis and correction protocols. Finally the 3 types of shooting: shooting on the iron, half-lob, full lob, stepping back, shooting the jack, clearing shot, under pressure. P2 Adapting to all conditions A shooter who only performs on their home terrain is not a fearsome shooter. This part covers advanced reading of the 7 terrain types (hard, sandy, gravelly, irregular, sloping, wet, running), the influence of equipment (weight, grooves, carbon vs stainless), and weather effects (wind, heat, humidity). Each parameter comes with quick-adjustment protocols applicable during a game. P3 100 numbered exercises — the professional library The heart of the book. 100 exercises sorted into 7 blocks: Foundations (EX-001 to 010), Advanced biomechanics (EX-011 to 015), Shooting types (EX-016 to 022), Terrain adaptation (EX-023 to 030), Equipment & weather adaptation (EX-031 to 036), Mindset & pressure (EX-037 to 045), Elite competition simulation (EX-046 to 060). Plus 4 special blocks: junior training, extreme refinement, creative exercises and level certification tests. P4 Structured training programmes by level Three complete programmes ready to use. Beginner: overall goals, weekly planning, exercise tables, monthly validation criteria. Confirmed: progression in volume and intensity, consistency management, pressure simulation. Elite: optimisation under pressure, advanced emotional stability, performance in real competition. P5 Video analysis & self-correction Video capture method: recommended angles, camera distance, analysis frequency. Technical analysis grid in 4 axes: posture, motion, hand release, trajectory. Before/after comparison with objective progress measurement. This part alone is worth the book for serious competitors — video reveals flaws invisible to the naked eye that 10 years of play haven't corrected. P6 Tracking & advanced statistics Turning training into data. Overall success rate, carreau rate, rate under pressure, stability per series, monthly analysis, progression charts, gap interpretation. Professional quarterly review with a level-progression decision. You'll no longer be able to say "I'm progressing" or "I'm stagnating" without proving it with numbers. P7 Le mental du tireur professionnel Ce qui sépare un bon tireur d'un tireur redoutable n'est pas technique — c'est mental. Routine pré-tir standardisée, gestion du 12-12 (le moment le plus dur), gestion d'un tir raté, stabilisation émotionnelle, construction d'une confiance durable, gestion de la pression du public. Des protocoles concrets, pas des généralités. P8 Les erreurs qui tuent un tireur Les 7 pièges les plus fréquents : forcer le geste, changer de technique trop souvent, négliger l'échauffement, ignorer les statistiques, manque de récupération, s'entraîner sans méthode. Chaque erreur est accompagnée d'un plan de correction structuré — pas d'un conseil vague, d'un protocole précis.

The 7 exercise blocks

Each exercise is numbered, sorted, and precise. No "exercise no.3 — shoot a bowl". Each sheet details the goal, the setup, the series, the validation criteria and the variants.

🔵 BLOC 0 — EX-001 à 010 Fondations techniques — les incontournables avant tout le reste 🔵 BLOC A — EX-011 à 015 Biomécanique avancée — affiner le geste déjà acquis 🔴 BLOC B — EX-016 à 022 Types de tir spécifiques — fer, portée, recul, bouchon... 🟡 BLOC C — EX-023 à 030 Adaptation terrain — 7 surfaces, 7 protocoles 🟢 BLOC D — EX-031 à 036 Matériel & météo — vent, chaleur, humidité, stries 🧠 BLOC E — EX-037 à 045 Mental & pression — simuler le concours à l'entraînement 🏆 BLOC F — EX-046 à 060 Simulation compétition élite — le niveau finale 🟣 BLOC G — EX-061 à 100 Spéciaux : juniors, perfectionnement extrême, créatifs, certification 🎁 Bonus professionnel inclus — téléchargement gratuit 📓 Carnet mental 📊 Grille d'évaluation 📄 Fiches protocoles 📅 Journal de performance ✅ Checklist compétition 🗺️ Carte routine pré-tir 🎙️ Pourquoi j'ai écrit ce livre "J'ai passé des années à regarder des tireurs se battre contre les mêmes défauts en boucle — parce qu'ils n'avaient aucun outil pour identifier ce qui n'allait pas. Ils s'entraînaient, oui. Mais sans méthode. Sans mesure. Sans progression visible. Ce livre, c'est la réponse à toutes les questions que j'aurais voulu avoir quand j'ai commencé : comment construire un geste qui tient sous pression, comment lire un terrain, comment gérer un 12-12, comment savoir si on progresse vraiment. J'ai voulu écrire le manuel que personne n'avait écrit avant." — Paquita, auteure et fondatrice de PétanqueLand

What you will learn

  • 🎯Build a reproducible shooting gesture — not "sometimes good", but stable under pressure, on all terrains, whatever the distance.
  • 📐Analyse your own shooting through video — identify flaws invisible to the naked eye that 10 years of play haven't been enough to correct.
  • 📊Track your progress with numbers — success rate, carreau rate, stability per series. You'll no longer say "I feel like I'm progressing" — you'll prove it.
  • 🧠Manage the mental side in competition — pre-shot routine, managing 12-12, stabilising after a missed shot. Validated concrete protocols, not vague advice.
  • 🌦️Adapt your shooting to every terrain and every weather — wet terrain, side wind, gravelly surface: you'll have an adjustment protocol for every condition.
  • 📅Follow a structured programme week by week — according to your level (beginner, confirmed, elite), with clear validation criteria before moving up a level.
📖 How to read this book

Two possible approaches. Strategic reading: browse the whole thing for an overall view of the method, then return to the parts matching your priority gaps. Direct application: identify your level (part 4), follow the corresponding programme week by week, using the numbered exercises as a reference. A tracking notebook is included in the bonuses — it structures the second approach from the very first session.
