Anywayz, I'm just wondering who among the Trad shooters here shoot instinctive or gap....
I'm really interested (and fascinated) by Instinctive shooting, so much so that even though I now have sights on my compound, I am tempted to remove them and just keep the rest and shoot it Fitzgerald style.
Eventually, I am planning on getting a longbow down the road.
So who shoots what?
I would say most start off gap, either on purpose or accident, and after a while it becomes instinctive all on its own. I ahve been practicing at night when I get home and you will be surprised where you hit and how you hit.
some who shoot aweful during the day tighten up thier groups. Some the complete opposite. Myself when I started shooting at candles at night, I went from mediocre groups to smacking arrows. Tells me I was overthinking the shot and needed to concentrate on a spot.
