RE: worst case of target panic ever!
That's funny...but target panic isn't.
Davidmil may have the answer. I cured mine by not shooting. Just form practice. Then shooting at a bale with no target (form shooting with trigger use). Then shooting at large bull close. Then slowly backing up etc.

RE: worst case of target panic ever!
I've got a quick head fix for you.... works for several of my friends and customers as well.
Get out the old digital kitchen timer... and have a friend or your old lady or someone set it for an undisclosed amount of time (somewhere between 7 and 30 seconds). On their command of go... they will start the timer and you will draw and get on target.... keep your finger behind the trigger and float your pin over the target.... just aim.... hold on it until you either can't anymore or until the beeper goes off..... when it goes off... put your finger in front of the trigger and loose when you are good and ready.
Like I said... if you have a form flaw, or a bow fit issue then thats another baby... but its a good little confidence builder... some folks act like it is costing them $100 a second to have their pin on the bullseye or the target... this little trick helps you remember that its free and encouraged.

RE: worst case of target panic ever!
Man...I had this bad about 4 years ago and it took me a year or two to nip it.....What I did to work it out of my system and out of my mind was the following:
-Made a fist with my trigger hand
-Told myself that I was only practicing to put my pin on the bullseye....
After making a fist and getting comfortable with holding over the bullseye I was able to work it out....
