Kegan:
Hill's style of shooting. I've been practicing it for a while now, and have gotten much mroe accurate (despite my awful vision). Anybody else shooting this way, or is instinctive the choice style nowadays?

Could you explain what that is exactly?  ???

Kegan:
You concentrate on the center of the target, as you would with insitinctive shooting, and as you bring the arrow to anchor you note the arrow tip in your peripheral vision, whilst maintaining total concetration on the center of the target. The tip would be placed at an imaginary point that, with continual shooting, will be ingrained in your memory for certain distances. It's kinda like a "back up" to instinctive shooting.

The two biggest things it's helped me with are long distance shots and targets where a center is hard to distinguish (like on a plain paper plate or a board).

IMO the biggest advantage ta split-vision aiming is that ifn ya miss ya have areference point when ya see how much ya missed by. With pure instinctive ya dont have that. Point is not ta miss I guess..........bob

Hi, I've been using that type of shooting style ever since reading his Hunting the hardway.... Great book and it has helped me lots in my 3D target scores and hunting results ;D It was hard to do first of all but when your brain clicks and gets it,it works wonders ;)
