Back Tension

Back Tension
I was told by a pro shooter to use back tension when I release. Right now I just squeeze the trigger and it goes off. I can get 1/2 inch groups by squeezing the trigger. If I can shoot like that now, should I use backtension?

yep, I wouldn't worry about it, unless you are planning on making a career out of archery. at your age, if you haven't developed target panic, then you probably won't. Keep the 1/2 inch groups.

Mantis not everybody developes target panic.

I'll finish up later I got a 3D shoot.

Mr. Longbeard, I don’t believe I read anywhere above where it said to switch to a back tension release.
thenuge, you don’t need a “special back tension release” in order to shoot with back tension.
Dude no your not don’t listen to him. It’s obvious you have a lot of interest in bowhunting and archery. Learn all you can and never stop learning. Keep asking the questions and take what people say in stride. You can be as good as you want to be.
Just to finish up from earlier, I switched to using the back tension method and my groups are tighter than ever and my scores soared! Archery is a lot more enjoyable when you’re not beating yourself up over punching the trigger. I wish I'd learned how to use the release the right way in the beginning.
