Title: Sometimes......
Post by: monkeyball on April 08, 2014, 02:31:00 PM
I just put a new box target down in the cellar yesterday with 6 fresh bright dots to boot. I had just served a new nock point on my bow the night before and thought that I would take 6 quick shots before leaving for work. Just about 11 yds and sitting down.

 Sometimes it all comes together....

Monkeyball, you should put pink and green spots on the bucks, they would be in trouble...

Nice shooting.  What stuffing material are you putting in the box?

Tracker,

           Thanks. It was originally one of those bag targets. It was getting pretty shot up so I just slip it into a cardboard box. I just change boxes when needed.

                                                 Good Shooting,

Spot on. Just kidding,I shoot instinctively. Look at the dot ,draw the bow , hit anchor, see you later. It happens really quick and not all days are like that one.

                                      Good Shooting,
                                                        Craig

I use to shoot instinctive for 2 years. Got tired of the "other days" and switched to gap... Now gap is so natural to me it feels like "instinctive" I hardly even think about it. What use to be my "on" days when I shot instinctive are now my norm and my "on" days now with gap never happened when I shot instinctively. Some guys can shoot instinctively very well, I am not one of them. Power to you for being able to shoot instinctive, but if the "other days" ever start wearing on you dont be afraid to change it up, i almost put the bow down for good before I switched and i'm so glad I didnt.
