I know that this is a strange post, but since I finally have it in writing I may not sound like a mad man.

I love to hunt. In the spring and summer months I play Golf. Alot of golf. My seasons run into each other most years. It is very well known that I can be seen in Camo on the local links, or browsing the edge of a feild in khakies and a polo shirt. I have remembered deer trails with feeding and watering areas around out of the way golf courses for years. Just happens.
One thing I learned that has always helped me in focusing on my shot whether it was with a Bow, rifle, or a 6 iron, was what I called "The Stare"

Here in this article they call it a "gaze" or "quiet eye".
Let me tell you, if there is anyone on the cutting edge of technology and repetitive human behaviors and form, it is the Golf industry. Major bucks!!
What they state in the article is to gaze at your target with a ruled or direct line. I use to tell my golfing buddies that if I stare at it(being the ball), and then let my body do the motion, I have success. And I have. Good success.
I use the same priciples in shooting a bow. I am a traditionalist. I shoot a recurve with no sightes or aids. I have always noticed that when I stare at or through the taret line and do not vary my line of sight, I am much more on target then if I just try to mentally calculate the process and compensate with physical movements. I am focused on what my body should or should not be doing, rather than my intended target.
I know that most of you are aware of this type of behavior, but the article expressed it in a way that implies better shots for everyone.
Plus the studies preformed provided more data on the issue.
