RE: For those who are punching the trigger...
i kinda agree with rick james. think about it. your punching the trigger because your not thinking about it your just doing it..right now with the new release you HAVE to think about it because its new and diffrent. but once your used to it you MIGHT fall back into doing it..maybe not though....let us know...just my thinking on it. i tend to think about stuff too much lol..but i hope it works out for you.....
just a question...what causes people to punch the trigger?? thats like jerking the trigger on a rifle right?? is it shot anticipation?? i always thought people jerked rifle triggers because they knew the recoil was coming. i hope i dont jerk my bow trigger. im ordering it this week finally..i think i have good trigger control when shooting a rifle. thats one of the things dad been teaching me all my life. "trigger control..breath....SQUEEZE the trigger" sometimes when im shooting i can HEAR him saying that even though hes not there lol. wierd...if thats what trigger punching is i think its all mental and you need to slow down and think about it while you do it. i bet your form and accuracy will be better too. good luck..let us know how it works out. one thing i thought of would be a back tension release. you wouldnt know its coming. thats almost like a hair trigger on a flintlock. its there to give you a surprise so theres no time to flinch and you wont know when to flinch. forgive me for all the gun comparisions. thats all i know right now, though ive read ALOT about archery i have yet to shoot a bow since i was a youngun...i cant wait to get my bow though! i better train myself properly so i dont fall into bad habits huh?? thanx for warning me about trigger punching..i heard about it before but now i know i need to watch for myself doing it
