Default RE: Anyone out there shoot instinctive with fingers with a compound bow?

I do have one still. I dont hunt with it much anymore, but I enjoy shooting it more that my other rig that has all the bells and whistles. Theres just a feeling when grabbing the string with a glove that a release cant replace. Not to mention, when that arrow hits the 10 ring, YOU did that yourself, a little different than putting a dot on something and pulling a trigger. You are correct about the quicker shot. You can get off alot quicker shooting instictive with a glove. Nothing to find except your anchor. As a matter of fact, the longer I hold the larger my margin of error. When I draw back, and hit my anchor Im on target. Not quite snap shooting, but pretty close. Yes it is a never ending honing of skills. Remember, you have to train yourself to know the difference between a 20yd and a 40 yard shot without a pin to guide you.

If you have never done any shooting of this kind with a compound or a stick, I highly recommend it.
