I'm a misbegotten backslider and a
« on: November 13, 2008, 03:01:00 PM »
heretic and I should be rolled in Fletch-Tite & feather scraps but I done did it.

I put a single-pin sight on my bow AND a clicker and my target panic is gone. I come to full draw and use back-tension to fire the clicker and now I can HOLD the pin on target and actually hit where I'm aiming.

It's brought some joy back into this game & maybe in time I can revert to my old instinctive style of shooting but for now, I'll use this to reprogram the widget-factory.

I'd recommend these tools to help yourself out of TP-Land, worth a try anyways   :thumbsup:

Go 4 it! I definitely wouldn't tar and feather ya   ;)   Do whatever it takes so you can enjoy archery again.

I happy for ya.

When you feel ready to take the sight off...you might wanna try putting a mark on your sight window...instead of going completely cold turkey   ;)   Either way...you'll know when the time is right or you just may be content leaving things the way they are now.

Ah now there's a clever lad, good idea Ray.

Come to think of it, didn't some of those  [Fred Bear (?)] strike plates have horizontal lines embossed into the leather?

I judge not, least I be judged. Welcome back to the land of the living.  When I started shooting in the 60's there were a lot of stickbows that had single pins on them.  You are still "Kool" with me!  Enjoy, and lay them low.
