Sat in a new set last night for the first time...After about 3 hours of waiting had a big doe walk in right under me....
perfect set up....10 yards broadside, head down eating acorns... I picked a spot, drew hit anchor and that's where it went down hill...FAST>>>>
For some reason...this has happened at the last three deer I have shot at....Right before i release my eyes dart to the right...I guess target panic, i went to release and my eyes shot to her tail. My fingers seem to have "hung on the string" and my arrow went two feet right and stuck in an oak.
I have a "system" to try to coach my self through the shot...i talk myself through my steps, telling myself to pick spot, draw, spot, anchor, spot....and the release just happens...it doesn;t seem to be working.
I have killed dozens of deer with "other" equipment, but for some reason seem to fall apart when my longbow is in my hand....any advice on how to overcome this????
