Giuliano Faletti (born 1956) is an Italian archer. He began practicing archery in 2005 using the instinctive (now traditional) bow and then switched to the longbow with which he currently competes. After his initial successes, he suffered from target panic, a discomfort he overcame with patience and practice, repeatedly practicing the movement of shooting the arrow without thinking about the target placed a short distance away. During this period, he tried to perfect the movement without trying to understand it, allowing his mind to memorize the movement to achieve a more ingrained instinct.
At world level he won two gold medals in the 3D specialty.
