Meet your coach

Hi, I'm Miguel Véliz

I have shot for El Salvador since 2003. Recurve took me to the Pan American Games and the London 2012 Olympic qualifier. Compound took me to the podium: silver in Barranquilla, bronze in San Salvador, silver in Guatemala and, in 2026, gold in Santo Domingo.

I live and train in North Texas, where I shoot for Cinnamon Creek Ranch. In 2026 I won the Texas state title, the NFAA Southern Sectional and the NFAA Indoor National Series, and shot a perfect 600 at the Indoor Nationals in Memphis.

What I teach is what I use in a final: a shot routine you can repeat when it matters, built on technique, not strength. From your first arrow to your first tournament, in English or Spanish.
