Those clickers WORK!!!!!!
« on: September 10, 2010, 07:15:00 PM »
I've been having some problems being consistent with my draw. I read an article about clickers in TBH and it got to thinking that one of those might help me get to where I want to be with my shooting. I ordered one but still didn't put it on my bow because I just didn't want to rely on it and I didn't want it on my bow. Well this evening I was shooting and just couldn't get to full draw like I should. A problem I've been having for awhile. So I thought the heck with it I'm going to try that thing out. I got it set up the way I wanted and then went to shoot. WOW my first group was perfect. I can hit the same draw length every time and my shooting is way more consistent. I don't have to think in my mind about hitting anchor and can just concentrate on my target. I should have been using one a long time ago.

I'm about to set one up on my bow too, as I have the same problem.

Mocsin,
Glad it worked for you!  I'll be trying one very soon as I have become the king of the "Target Panic Short Draw"!
My ability to reach a consistent anchor point has deteriorated the more I practice.
I've tried every drill posted on the shooters forum, and I've read "Instinctive Archery Insights" by Dr. Kidwell a dozen times and have used his recommended drills, but no improvement.
The clicker is my last, best chance.
Shooting had gotten frustrating, not fun, and that aint good! Really glad it worked for you, hope I'm that fortunate!

Hang in there sendero. I think it will work. Lets your mind focus on aiming and not drawing. Also get away form the practice target and hit the fields and woods and shoot blunts at what ever you can find and have some fun. That helps get your mind off how bad our shooting is. The main thing is never give up. We are the outsiders in the hunting world and they don't need to see us give up our hard way of doing things.

I've had a clicker in my box so long that the sticky back had rotted off!  Went to Radio Shack and bought some attachments, set up the clicker and boy, what a difference.  Didn't know I needed one till I tried it.
