I can't really tell you, but I know it when I see it. I have no qualms with my shooting or worrying about some magical distance. Love hugs and kisses

It’s an odd one for me . For someone who has battled target panic on and off for many years ….

It’s an on the day thing .

I got home from a 2 day 3d shot a few hrs ago … I shot  a bunch of tens and then got the yips so bad that I missed a bunch of targets completely, like a bunch  ….  Got home , then shot 3 arrows in. 9” group at 27 metres .

A few weeks back I cleaned up a few Merriams and goats in New Zealand from 8 yards to 35 … didn’t even think about it . Just got to anchor and pulled through , no doubt in my mind I was going to take them cleanly. Give me an audience on the 3d range and I’m a mess ( a work in progress to be sure )

It’s a daily struggle … don’t get it stumping with the lads , don’t get it in game and don’t get it when at my Point On …. Rubber and a crowd ? …. Ewwwww..

So is it weird that I’m often better at 35 than 10

Yes is the answer …😂
