Default RE: Teaching an old dog a new trick ( Release Question)

Thanks for the feedback. I quess I have some thinking to do. As with anything in Archery and bowhunting. There is no easy answer.

Len In Maryland... As far as application. I have a few.... I shoot with friends all summer long. We some 3D shooting, but we do allot of games that require the shooter to pick a spot instead of just shooting at a bullseye. Games such as we Draw a Tic- tac toe board with either 3 or 4 in' squares and then take turns shooting the squares. First to get three in a row win's.. We have Drawn up a modified Cricket board ( As in Darts ) and play that or 301. I also get out to local farm and hunt ground hogs as much as I can. My version of stump shooting for yardage estimitation.. Plus the farmer likes getting rid of the ground hogs and I have land to hunt come season. Which is ultimately the bonus round to shooting a bow for me. ... So in a nut shell. My application is target, Fun 3D (no Competitions ) critter hunting and Whitetail.
I seem to have my biggest issue with my release in the target forum. I settle the pin and try to slowly squeeze the trigger. looking for the surprize. but as mentioned I don't think I can do two things at once well. I either get the suprize but am off on the target. Or I am inconsistently on the target, but punching the trigger.
Thanks again
