Glad I could help Fritz!

Along with others, I don't shoot a bow without one.

I like that link, very helpful. Thanks.
I've already had two critiques of my shooting form when I posted my latest video on FB(a link from youtube).

Did you notice the hog is now dead?(I know they mean well).

I've used one on and off as well. Sometimes it helps, other times I don't even hear it, or pay attention to it. My brain (?) seems to concentrate on either a spot to hit or the click, not both.

Okay.  I guess I'm left to provide the dissenting opinion.

I tried a clicker a couple of years back due to inconsistent anchor (rather than target panic).  What I found was that the clicker caused me target panic.  

My shooting completely fell apart while using one.  I took it off and started focusing on my anchor.  Don't get me wrong, I'm a believer that consistent form is the key to accuracy.  But, I also believe that consistency is achieved in different ways for different people.

A clicker caused target panic for me, but, it appears, I am the exception.

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.
