A second study, of 28 Chinese archers at three levels, finds roughly half each instead, with the draw lasting 2.1 to 2.5 seconds and the aim 2.2 to 2.4; it appeared, however, in a journal with questionable editorial standards, and the standard deviations of its percentages do not match each other, so the registry keeps it as context and does not let it decide the status. The timings from the 2007 World Championships had already shown how much the proportion changes from one archer to another, with a women's world champion who aimed for 0.6 to 1.2 seconds after a raise and draw of about four. The overall duration from draw to release is similar across studies, at around four or five seconds; it is the split within it that does not hold as a rule.claim:tempi-fasi-tiro:revision:2026-03-11:2Wed, 11 Mar 2026 08:00:00 GMT https://matteocampagna.com/en/registry/technique/draw-and-aim-timingclaim:tempi-fasi-tiro:new_claim:2026-02-17:contraddettoTue, 17 Feb 2026 08:00:00 GMT
