point on
DQ:
Find a copy of the DVD, Masters of the Barebow, Vol 1. I never understood this style of shooting until Rod Jenkins explained it in that video. It's called gap shooting and, with practice, it is a deadly system, especially on targets.

Most people that use point on is gap shooters but it you shoot HOWARD HILL split vision you can use point on also.
It pirrty simple it's the distance where if you use the arrow tip as a sight. It's where the arrow hits dead on at that distance.
I shot instintive but always know my point on. I once shot a doe with a 67 # self bow my point on was 49 yards. I guessed her at 50 and spine shot her. That was 21 or 22 years ago. When it was more important to just kill a deer THAN HOW YOU KILLED IT. But I still send a skud or 2 at ground hogs everyyear.
