Anyone ever try this?
« on: November 23, 2011, 11:13:00 AM »
Ok maybe this is just me but lets say you are shooting and for some reason you are hitting just right of what you want to hit. try picking up a rock and try to hit something with it and see what side you miss to. I was stump shooting one day a while back and took three shots at a can someone left behind all three where just right I could not belive that I missed it all three times told the wife I could hit it with a rock from here. then failed to the right. sence then I have been thinking and trying different things it seems like when I am a little off ( and maybe you will all think that I am more then a little off after reading this. lol) one way or the other left, right, high, or low it will be the same weather I am shooting my bow, throwing a rock or some darts. Any thoughts on this?

Are you trying to say it might have something to do with eye sight or it's all in your mind ?, or it has to do with the weather ?

Yes, one is not usually on all the time, look at the Pro's, it's the same for them.

have wife slap your head hard to recalibrate...........left side if hitting left, right side if hitting right...............knock things back into alignment.............
Bowhunting is "KILL and EAT" not "Catch and Release".....Semper Fi!
