Instinctive shooting

(1/3) > >>

HoBow:
I do not instinctively shoot- but want to start. Once you can shoot this way- is it any different across different poundage bows?

Pat B:
Jeff, I usually shoot many different bows each year and find it is easy to switch from one poundage to another with instinctive shooting. Your brain will compensate for the difference after a shot or two.
  G. Fred Asbel's "Instinctive Shooting" is an excellent book on instinctive shooting. He got me understanding and shooting better. You can order it from Horsefeathers

HoBow:
Thanks Pat- I will def get it.

Keenan:
One good way to find out if you are truly instinctive or by sight is to shoot at night in total darkness at glow sticks on your target. ::)  Give it a try, it's a kick, just make sure that you have a good backstop or big wall of bails. ;D

Kegan:
I'm a gap shooter, except on moving targets. I use the arrow in my peripheral vision to aim in a straight line with the target. The more I practice, the less I actually use this to aim though, shooting more "instinctively". It's all barebow shooting though :D
