zac, you do in fact have target panic. what you are trying to do it "get it before it gets away" you can aim, but only for a short period of time. you get scared of a miss, and whack it.

taking the sight off of the bow is a good idea, and shooting a 10 yards is also a good idea. you need to retrain or train your mind to what a good shot is and what it feels like. shooting a blank bale at ten yards lets you do that. you need not be concerned with hitting anything, or even aiming. i will suggest keeping your eye or eyes open. just focus on the release, and what it takes to manipulate it. shooting with a caliper style release in general is one of the greatest causes of target panic because they are so easy to manipulate. your index finger should extend over the trigger to the second joint in the finger. you should not have to reach for the trigger. pulling thru the shot and using steady back tension is the key. pushing with the bow arm and pulling with the release hand will help. imagine squeezing a ball between your shoulder blades as you aim. do not pull the trigger with your index finger. allow back tension to trigger the release. this will take a lot of focus, and if the shot does not happen in 10 seconds or less, let the bow down and start over. overholding and aiming is just as bad as snap shooting. after about 100 arrows, put your sight on your bow. stay at 10 yards and begin shooting at a spot. your mind has to know it is okay for the pin to sit where you want your arrow to strike. at this point all you need to do is focus on your spot and squeeze the back tension. proper draw length is key here. if your bow is too long, you will have fits. 72" of wingspan is 28.5 inches of draw. for every inch of wingspan above that, add 1/2 inch of draw, and same goes for shorter, subtract 1/2 inch of draw for every inch below.

start with a good positive attitude, and relax. it will come together with a little practice.
