Make sure your arrow is nocked between the upper and lower knot of the D-Loop.įourth is drawing back. I shoot a compound bow, so with this type of bow, with a drop down arrow rest, the index vane should be pointing up. This may seem elementary, but I see experience arteries screw this up time and time again. At this point in the process, I will double check that the arrows fletching is lined correctly. Also, never shoot with an open hand and no wrist sling! Some use a closed grid, but I feel your hand should be relaxed and having a open hand, helps me with this.

I have a strap on the handle of my bow which helps me have that open grip. But yeah, I’m here to work on everything so why not on the stance too? You can laugh, cause if you're like me and you hunt from a elevated tree stand, you’ve hardly ever gotten the opportunity to shot a deer with the “perfect” stance”. This means I’m turned about a 45-degree, with feetspread about shoulder width apart to the target down range. We shoot 60 arrows each time, so it’s a great opportunity to work on everything from concentrating to follow through.įirst is my stance. I don’t join for the competitiveness (I'm not trying to be Buck Man), but for the three months it provides me to work on my shooting skills. Every year, shortly after the bowhunting season ends, I join a indoor archery league. The hunting off season can give you the perfect opportunity to take the time to sharpen your shooting skills for next year's hunting season.

Hunting off season provides the perfect time to tune your shooting skills.
