What does split vision shooter mean?

I release when my arrow is on target. If that's when I come to anchor, great. If I have to wait a few seconds to get there, than I'll do that.

I'll give it a shot.  Gap shooting is focusing on the tip of the arrow and the target and aiming by knowing what the gap between the target and the tip should be for a given distance.  

My understanding of split vision is this:  The line of sight is one line.  The line the arrow points along is another.  Split vision is adjusting the line of the arrow to some imaginary spot above or below the target in your line of sight.  i.e. If the arrow had a lazer pointed straight ahead out the tip - where would that dot be showing up if the target was two-dimensional on a flat surface?

But I may be wrong.  Every time I read H.Hills description of it in Hunting The Hard Way I get more confused.

use what works best for you.....like some have said ...when I decide to shoot, I just look at the spot I need to hit......never look or think of anything else.....works for me on game because I stink at shooting 3-D.....
