Re: Anchor and alignment and form..and still learning
Good choice of bows!
I have a Howard Hill Big 5 that was made for a mate but found too heavy. So I helped him out by buying it!
It was not his intention to sell it but I found it easier to part with the money than I did to part with the bow
(Thanks Dennis just love this bow.)

Re: Bear Kodiak Custom Custom
Great to hear you will take it out of the box some time Tony
If you get cold feet you can use my riser with the new aftermarket limbs
I only bring the bear out on special occasions now but seeing your new bow has encouraged me to take it of mothballs.

To do this and still conform with the ABA (Australian Bow-hunting Association) rules, we are going to shoot a standard 2 day 3D round with an ad...

Re: Instinctive shooting - an instinctive shooter's perspective
The subject of what we call our method of shooting always causes discussions on the definition of terms. I learnt to shoot a slingshot as a kid because I have an innate desire to hunt. The choice of weapon has not changed much slingshot or bow much the same to me. Today I still hunt with both and kn...

Re: Instinctive shooting method-your way of taking the shot
When shooting with the sights I have the bow as vertically aligned as possible. The sight will tell you very quickly if the arrows are under or over spined. The problem with shooting barebow is that you will compensate for a poorly tuned setup as your subconscious is looking for a positive result. T...

Re: Instinctive shooting method-your way of taking the shot
Good quote Graham.
Going back to a recurve, I started using a sight as a tuning aid. I found that if the bow shoots straight and consistent with a sight, the job of shooting barebow becomes a whole lot easier.

Re: Blank bale shooting
Practice is the key. Blank bale shooting works well for fixing form issues and target panic. Follow a simple shoot routine. 1. knock an arrow 2. raise your bow arm to target 3. draw to anchor (steps 2 and 3 can be done together, your choice) 4. follow through Releasing should not be part of your rou...
