RE: What do you think about at full draw?
I honestly think I don't have a conscious thought at the magic moment. What I have begun to do is tell myself....as soon as I decide to take an animal .....that that animal is dead. Itwent from "am i really gonna get a shot at this animal" to....."dead deer".
This is also about the time I quit being nervous before the shot. After the shot???? No comment.

When im at my house i think... What if my dogs come running through about the time i fire. when im in the woods and im getting ready to shoot a doe i think... What if a buck will be here in 15 minutes.

Taking an animal has just become sub-conscious for myself. It's all memory. I seem to just fade out.. and totally rely on muscle memory from the moment I know I am ready to take this particular animal. It's so fundamental.. I can't even explain it.. but thought... their is none.
I am sure for many hunters this is normal.

Just to think of one, I sometimes have a statement made by John Schulz (and I hear it in his voice) refering to a Howard Hill concept saying,
"Upon release both hands do nothing".
"Upon release both hands do nothing".

X3 , I have to agree 100% with Duke on this one.
