get ya a bow that is not to strong for ya. shoot alot. i just look at what i want to hit and sling wood. shoot the same every time. i video myself when i first started and could see what i was doing wrong. dont shoot till you wear yourself out you pick up bad habits. use the same anchor point every time. oh ya shoot alot. shoot good.

jnoel2279:
is there a difference in left or right handed  bows for this topic? I'm a south paw , and in the past i wolud shoot a compound bow and it was left handed set at 70#. what would you advise?

Pat B:
I learned instinctive shoot by reading G.Fred Asbell's book, INSTINCTIVE SHOOTING. He goes through it all step by step and in simple terms and explains his methods so even I could understand.  ;D
   There are left and right handed bows. Depending on which style bow you will be shooting some grips are more interchangeable than others.  If you are used to shooting a 70# compound I would suggest you buying an inexpensive bow pulling 45# to 50#. That way you can learn to shoot without straining and once you get it down you can build yourself a more suitable bow.

Kegan:
Get the book Shooting the Stickbow by Anthony Camera. It's THE book on how to shoot a bow. It coveres absolutely everything you could think of, and even some stuff you never would have ;D!
