Default RE: Back Tension Release?

The BT release will not be good for hunting at all! Its very easy, to accidently make a BT release go off if you are not experienced with it, and even when you are, a hunting situation makes all of those form things, so muchharder to do.

I actuallyseem to goback and forth with tp,where every couple months (maybe 3-4) i will start getting into a bad habit of tp, and start punching the trigger. for the next week or so ofshooting, i have to go into "bail mode". I have to make myself blank bale,adn do like SC said and aim without shooting. The aiming without shooting and letting down is what personally helps me the most.I do that from time to time even when im shooting good, just tocheck up myself and make suremy mind is right when going into shooting. Its hard to make yourself go out and aim adn not shoot. Shooting is the satisfying part, but you have to have the discipline to get your mind right so shooting is second nature.

Setting up your release short will help you too. My trigger is in the perfect spot where my finger is just bent/hanging over the trigger. Then instead of squeezing the trigger, you lay your finger over the trigger, and pull back like your trying to tear apart your bow (pull through the shot) and the release will come asa surprise. It is something that takes a bit to aquire, but once learned itwill make you more accurate. You are incorporating back tension into atrigger release.
