Music while Shooting

sore fingers · February 07, 2018, 02:50:00 PM

I was just curious to see if anyone else listens to music while they shoot? I will start by saying, I have no want nor need to listen to music while I am Hunting or Shooting with others. But, when it is just me out in the field, shooting practice, I love to listen to music. When my concentration is on and I can push through a great shot, while Metallica and the San Fransisco symphony play The Ecstasy Of Gold Is Magic. It adds more fun to solo practice for me. Ok, thats it. Take care Gang.

I normally listen to podcasts if anything. Usually archery or hunting related ones.

I do when it cold out and I'm shooting some in my basement. Any good bluegrass, Seldom Scene, Country Gentlemen, Balsam Range, etc. I also listen to some old country while shooting, Alabama being my favorite. Sending arrows downrange while listening to Dixieland Delight is pretty good stuff for me.

I am a musician and a composer. I cannot stand to hear any music from anywhere during outdoor activities like, hunting, fishing, canoeing or camping. Especially rock or country.

We have something in common. I only like it in the truck.

I guess I never thought of it. Can't say I ever listened to music while shooting. I don't when in the woods

Can't say I ever thought about even trying. I like hearing the tune of the bow and the thump of the arrow on the hay bale.

I love music but not while shooting.

I play my bowstring.

Only the wind.

String music for me.

Sometimes there's a song running through my head, but I haven't ever listened to music. Maybe I should try it. It may improve my shooting.

I just hate it when I get a song stuck in my head. I went out the last week of the season and I got this old song from my old friendly acquaintance John in my head. don't listen to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58hHVlZCfvM

Well, I kinda figured I would be in the weird minority on this here. I listen to music about 20 percent of my practice. It is so enjoyable to me I will always mix some tunes in here and there. Thanks for the replies guys. Keep flippin Arrows!

Inside shooting yes, rock or country. Outside no.

reddogge · February 08, 2018, 09:48:00 AM

Come to think of it I may have this one played on an endless loop running when I shoot.

I find you all weird, LOL. I know I'm the weird one as music does nothing for me. I could go my entire life without any of it, so no I don't listen while shooting, or doing anything else for that matter.

I listen to classical music, old rock and roll and old country. The new stuff just sounds like noise to me. Do not normally have music on while i shoot, but maybe should
