Glad it's working for you, WH.

I relate a lot of my archery to golf (something I know a little about). Correlating.....I couldn't imagine wasting so much time practicing ship shots ......retrieving the ball after each shot. It's not my idea of expediency. We learn through repetition.

On the other hand......I think it IS good practice when every shot counts. That kind of practice has its place, also. One of the best teachers in golf (and archery) is the realization that we have to live with each shot. There sometimes are no "mulligans".

For golf......it's easy. If we have an errant shot.....we go and start over with a totally new experience with its own array of issues. In archery.....(target or hunting)....it's one and out. ALL we can do is prepare ourselves for every shot.

The key to repetitious practice is having the mental fortitude to approach each shot with the same focus......in lieu of just "hitting balls" or "slinging arrows".

The point to my post was......"I" feel it's easier to expedite my practice by giving each arrow the same credence/worth.....and shooting many v. few. Whatever works for you is what you should do, though. If that's one arrow at a time.....kudos.
