Default RE: How bad does holding your bow back for a long time effect your shot?

To answer you question it certainly can. I' v pulled back on deer when it step behind a tree and had it stay behind the tree long enough so I couldn' t let the arrow fly with a clear conscious. If I have any concrete doubts about a shot I will not take it. Before this happened I had never even contemplated the sinerio. Now when I pratice the last thing I do is pull and hold. I hold until it feels arm arms are going to be ripped off. It has helped to build endurance on those super long holds that sometimes occur but I' ve yet to have it happen since. Go figure!
If you add it to your routine when you shoot it may help. wost sinerio it only takes 2 maybe 3 minutes top.
