Touch and go/ deliberate hold

[champ38]

Im an instinctive,touch and go shooter. This works well for me hunting and for 3-d  , doesnt matter to me if its 10 ..or 40 yards.

I've seen Champ shoot and felt the agony of defeat at his hands    a very good shot and a very controlled T&G (reminds me of Terry style).

Voted "touch n go" ; but, definitely not hold for 2-3 seconds. More like 1 second maybe. All my pre-shot instinctive mechanics are done prior to draw as opposed to after. I shoot instinctive only w/o reference to arrow or tip at all.

I voted deliberate hold, but its only for a second or two. I use to be the touch and go shooter with my 62# bow, but I just got a 71# bow this winter and I found myself not coming all the way back to anchor. Now I drag my thumb across the corner of my mouth, middle finger comes to the corner of my mouth, thumb drops behind my jaw bone, and I keep pulling till my feathers touch my nose for a second. And of course pull through my shot. Also like Terry said, I let the game dictate what I do in a certain situation. If I'm standing in front of a target or stump shooting, I go through the process I posted above.

I voted hold, which is new for me. I've really been able to make lots of improvement by holding, feeling my anchor, and letting my bow arm settle. Then the shot just happens.
