Very good read.

Great article, great mag, I'm glad I subscribed to all issues. They had alot of good archer's shooting info.

Great article, thank you.
The article makes mention of another article:

fall 2000 - target panic
winter 2000 - bow tuning
spring 2001 - bow hand & release

Awesome! Thanks Rob.

Great read Rob - thanks!

Really demonstrates how far the definition of instinctive has gotton away from its origin as an archery term. And how shooting knowledge has regressed.
