Little John:
I have been browsing thru the fourth edition of the bible and reading the parts I had skipped over, finally read the lessons learned from target archery chapter and think it is already helping. It really does pay to dot the I's and cross the tees.  Hope it helps me shoot better under pressure. I liked the part about holding at full draw for two seconds and and follow thru for two seconds after the arrow is in the target. As I think a lot of us snap shoot and don't realise that it causes a lot of problems. Any way it is well worth reading.      Kenneth

Little John,
I agree.It is my favorite chapter in the book.We can build these things till we're blue in the face,but if we cant shoot em,it doesnt do us much good does it?Leastwise,if we are usein em to shoot game with.

JW_Halverson:
Hehehe, to add dmy 2 cents...I have been on a quest for lighter and lighter arrows for the last year since I tend to hit low at 20 yds.  Then a few weeks ago I was shooting at a new target, an arrow net, and I was practicing my release instead of working on accuracy.  Turns out I was not following through, was dropping my bow arm.  Now all my arrows hit a little high! 

Go ahead, point and laugh, I'm used to it.

cowboy:
Makes sense Kenneth - I think my style and form are in a class of thier own ;D. That is something I need to work on.
