Default When do you stop?

I was out shooting today and got some good groups (1/2 inch at 20 yards) and a question popped into my head. When are you supposed to stop? I always shoot with a positive attitude and when my groups open up I still have a positive attitude. I just like to shoot. I just can't figure out when to stop. Can someone help me? Thanks

I shoot until it gets hard to hold the bow on target without much movement.

Shoot til your arm falls off. Then its time to quit. Just kidding. I stop while I am still shooting good. I don't want to develope any bad habits while I am tired. I practice getting into the zone early by making a one arrow night. I will shoot only one arrow and then quit. It makes it like real hunting. Either hit or miss. This also helps me get into the zone on the first target at the 3-D range.

I'll stop when they pry my cold dead fingers away from my bow! When they plant me.[8D]

Just gotta shoot!!!
