deer usually have a speck of dirt or some ruffled hair where i want to shoot them. so it's not that hard to pick a spot, i do have a good imagination to though....lol

I use "The Block" foam target- one side has five 2 or 3 inch spots, but I shoot at the back side, which is plain white. I use a black marker to make a half inch dot and focus on that.

We also have one of those 5' x 5' Block targets at our club range. On each corner section there is a 2" diameter black dot. That is what I focus on, from 10 to 20 yards in practice.
Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An Archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"

when there are too many spots, i have a tough time. Pretending there is a spot is easier for me.

I also tend to shoot center of mass even if I am aiming at a dot somewhere else on the face.

When hunting or 3D shooting , I shoot for the exit hole, that way i know all the vitals that i have hit. Works for me!
