LOL! It's been so long since I've gotten to full anchor with a recurve or longbow that I've forgotten what I used to think. [8D]

I honestly can't remember thinking anything. Autopilot takes over as soon as I anchor and I won't remember thinking anything until the arrow is on its way. Its really like I blank out until after the shot.

I like Big Johns response! Gee I wonder what the wife is doing right now? Actually I am making a conscious effort to keep my body relaxed,hands especially,feet and knees next.Then it is aim,aim,aim,aim,aim,explosion of the release,exagerate the follow through,watch the animal fall.

I usually just think about having good form and following through after the shot.

Aiming, that's it; I think to myself "aim, aim, aim, aim..." until the shot goes off.

At full draw I don't think. I try to let my instincts take over and take the best possible shot. Thinking can and will cause target panic.
