gcoleman, GET Jay's book!  :readit:    ;)  Best $$ you can spend! I have used his advice from the book, and shoot better now than I have in my 25+ years of shooting and hunting with a Trad bow. It helped open my "Mind" and get my focus sharp. Funny how simple it realy is, but it works!

 GOOD LUCK!   :thumbsup:    :archer:

"Hello my name is Lance and i have TP"....this has got to be the most horrible things one can have besides getting poked in your dominant eye with a sharp stick.....

but seriously....i have been shooting for about 5 years and about a year and a half ago i developed what others called on here...."IT"  My form of "IT" is somewhere before i get fully drawn back my mind starts sceaming...Release! Release!!!.......now i am plenty strong enough to hold even a 65# bow at full draw for some time......AS LONG AS I AM NOT AIMING AT SOMETHING!

I finally posted on here in the forums and was told what "IT" was and some information on how to kick it......but i still havent so far....it nearly made me quit shooting altogether there for awhile....

I am definately going to order this book!

My only problem with the book is that competitions are going to get tougher.. And deer herds thinner. LOL

Well I have quit hunting for the last three years due to target panic and now it has gotten bad enough on targets that I am ready to just put archery down all together. It just isn't any fun anymore.Tried all the suggested stuff and have had little to no improvement.Maybe will give it one last try and order the book.

well I e-mailed Jay with a detailed accounting of my target panic. He promptly e-mailed me back first with an encouraging statement of good news;my target panic is 100% curable.what target panic is  and a simple four step shot process to retrain my brain. Within a half hour shooting session utilizing jay's suggestions I have regained some semblance of control again. I have not shot this confidantly in years and am certain for the first time that I can overcome this panic. I cannot wait until tommorrows session!!! Man it has been a looooong time since I have enjoyed shooting my bow. I know that I have some real work ahead of me;however with these new tools at my disposal I believe I am on the road to recovery. Thank you Jay for taking time out to help me!God Bless.

I have been following Jays recomendations and it has worked good for me. I didnt have a bad case of TP. I would have an occasional flinch. It has realy put me back in control.

shot for the second time using jays suggestions and with the exception of a couple of burps I shot with control. It is unbelievable how effective this is. I cannot wait to shoot again!Lance let us know how you make out with your shooting.

Just wanted to tell everyone out there that a while back, I emailed Jay Kidwell, after reading about his 100% cure rate for TP.  What I expected was him to say, Buy My Book!  Instead, he sent me detailed instructions for using his system, and within a very short time, I was seeing a marked improvement.  Just wanted people to know that this guy's the real deal and obviously just wants to help people, and maybe make a few dollars, instead of the other way around

I emailed Mr. Kidwell and received a very detailed procedure to stop my short drawing and release. He sure is a nice, helpful guy.

sure hope so I have been struggling with this for 3 or 4 years.The only problem I have is holding my self bows back for the time it take to go through the routine he suggest.I hate doing that with my selfbows so I think I will get a glass bow to do it with.Good luck!!!

It's been several months of work for me now. I can honestly say that I have lost the anxiety in my shooting. I'm not short drawing anymore. I still have some work to do, but have been making steady progress.

More importantly, I am able to feel immediately when I make a TP related mistake and immediately correct it using the simple exercises.

I'd love to borrow my copy of Mr. Kidwells book to anybody and everybody who needs it, but I'm not letting that thing out of my sight.....ever.  ;)

Practice more .... shoot less. It's working for me.   :thumbsup:

Would this book be helpful to someone who wanted to   increase their draw weight?

I have shot a 45# recurve for several years, and can draw and hold at anchor comfortably with this bow.  I recently got my hands on a 50# longbow that I struggle to get to anchor with.

Note:  I have measured the recurve on a bow scale, and it is 45# @ 28.  I have not scaled the longbow yet.  

Thanks!

Time for a follow-up on the procedure Jay sent me to cure my short drawing target panic. I have to add that he took the time to send me several pages of instructions for my particular problem.

The second day of our archery season I had a 12 yd shot at a spike buck. I drew and HIT ANCHOR for the first time in 30 years of bow hunting. Just as I hit anchor the buck looked up at me. After he spotted me he had no trouble ducking my arrow.

I do the exercises often and am much more focused when I draw on a target.

I was so grateful for him unselfishly taking the time to help me with my TP I ordered his book yesterday. My way of saying "thank you Jay".
