greg im in the same position . when i hunt i snap shoot . from the face shoulder or hip. and i kill what i look at because the concentration is there. i want to kill the animal and its all thats in my head. target shooting is another story. i suck. but im working on it. if your bowarm is moving it is more than likely caused by a sloppy loose. get yourself to the point where you can draw on target and hold for a count of 3 or more. i usually dont go more than 3. do this at 10 -15 yards. when you start to feel some control and feel like loosing the arrow dont open your hand to loose the arrow. squeeze your upper back and shoulder muscles together. this will cause your hand to come back straight rather than pull away from your face. give it a try it works. also shoot distance occasionally. you need a very clean loose to be consistent at 50-60 yards. but dont get hung up onthe longer distance stick to 10-15 till you feel you have control.

bob my form of target panic is different from most . i seem to need to hold anchor when im shooting targets but the brain wants to hunt so as soon as i hit anchor the fingers open. im no where near as bad as i am after hunting season but i always work on form thoughout the year. peace

.................Guess I am so used to huntin' that I loose without thinkin'. Targets I am ok but I really only care 'bout huntin' game. Oh well, difference between huntin' and archery I guess  ;) :P...........bob

Justin Snyder:
Bob, thinking has never been a huge problem for Greg either.  I heard his wife say he does it so rarely that she was glad to hear he was doing it at all.  ;D  Justin

GregB:

Justin, you crack you up! ;D
