Default RE: coming back w/questions

no way Bprep. NOw if you wanted to use one for accuracy purposes or to learn gapping/point of aim/split vision shoot, that would work I am sure.

Reason is....You are working on form. NOTHING ELSE! One needn't worry where ones arrows are going when they are working on things like anchor point, release, bowhand, shoulder, etc etc. There is a reason the best shooter ever shot half his arrows a day for form alone! Some was for looks, the rest I am sure is to keep up to snuff on skills, NOT accuracy!

You'd be better served doing as LBR has stated in another post on shooting up close to the target, eyes closed. It takes a bit to get used to but after a day or two you'll really be gettin down to work. When you are practicing for form, you must shoot an arrow! Its part of the process, like driving a car, things dont work when the distributor cap isnt there! But yet worrying about or getting flustered with accuracy will be your down fall or the beggining of the dreaded disease!

You'll notice the word consitent being revived in most of the posts...there is a reason for it! When you find yourself boggering things up, take a day off....go shoot at a blank but up close/eyes closed BUT DONT SHOOT FOR ACCURACY!!!
