Default How much do you practice

With a compound, about once or twice a year. With my trad bows. Once or twice a week.

I don't shoot my Xbow very often. Just before season to make sure its sighted in.

I try to shoot every day but with work, wife, and child it usually works out to be about 5 times a week. I move a bag target into my barn light for night time shooting. Thats longbow and compound.

Bout 3 times a week, about 12-30 arrows each time. I shoot from different angles and such...set the target in wierd locations and then range it with the RF'r and pop off 3-4 arrows then move again.

I think I know every range in my yard by now...lol
