how often you practice?
 

Curious how often people practice shooting their bows...

RE: how often you practice?
 

I try to everyday! :)

RE: how often you practice?
 

At least every weekend, I try to during the week but college and work and wife and kids tend to get in the way.

RE: how often you practice?
 

I shoot at least 3-4 times a week but often only shoot 16-20 arrows a session. If I'm shooting good I may only shoot a dozen, If I'm shooting poorly I may shoot 40-50.

RE: how often you practice?
 

I'll generally try to shoot everyday, even if it's only a dozen arrows.

RE: how often you practice?
 

ideally every day, realistically i get out 3-4 times a week.

RE: how often you practice?
 

3-4 x's per week and 25-50 shots per session during the off season.

RE: how often you practice?
 

try to every second day,but depends on school wife kids. I have no set amount of arrows, my archery club has an outdoor 3d range so I usually do the cousre shooting usually 3 arrows at each target.

RE: how often you practice?
 

Three times per week during the months of July, August and September. I spend too much time on the streams during spring and early to mid-summer. Usually 20 - 30 shots. Winter time is spent tying flies that need replentished.

RE: how often you practice?
 

Through the summer I try to shoot at least 3 times a week. In each session I try to shoot around 30 arrows. Once the season starts I try to shoot a couple times just to stay sharp.

RE: how often you practice?
 

In the winter I don't shoot at all, but once spring comes I shoot anywhere from 2-5 times a week. It really depends on my mood. I usually shoot a good 50-75 arrows during each session.

RE: how often you practice?
 

I shoot from 25-100 arrows a session depending on how well I'm doing and how I feel. I try to do this 4-6 times a week.

RE: how often you practice?
 

Pretty much every day, not always though. When it's nice out I will shoot for an hour or so at a time. I will shoot my bow, then do something else, then get it back out again and shoot some more. Some times I will shoot it three or four times a day. I have shot for more than 5 hours in one day before. I shoot less in the winter because I don't care for cold weather, but probably shoot at least 3 times a week in the winter, for maybe 20 or 30 minutes at a time.

Keep in mind I have the luxury of shooting in my backyard. If I had to go somewhere it would be alot less, like maybe twice a week or something like that. From what I have been told most pros don't really practice that much. Quality over quantity is the key I guess.

I don't really call what I do practicing. I just love to shoot, that's all there is to it. Practice would imply that I am making myself do it to reach a certain goal. That is not the case with me. I shoot for the joy of releasing arrows, I just enjoy doing it. I also like to tinker with my bow and set up as well.

Three to four times a week before season.

RE: how often you practice?
 

I start shooting in late August / early September, usually 3 or 4 times a week. Right now I'm shooting tight groups at 20 yards so I'll probably only shoot once a week from now until I've filled both of my tags. Season opener is Oct 16th.

When Spring finally arrives and the snow has melted and the ground has dried i like to shoot few rounds a couple of nights a week..
But near the end of July begining of August it becomes a nightly ritual.
And i still can't Beat myself :D

3-4 times per week in the off season shooting anywhere from 40-80 arrows. During the season it's as often as possible but only 20-40 shots per session.

RE: how often you practice?
 

Try to everyday. Really hitting the recurve hard. Compound is dialed in and ready to go.

RE: how often you practice?
 

The targets go out in the spring. I try as often as I can, but with work/wife/kids it never seems to be enough.

RE: how often you practice?
 

I shoot 3 times a week till about a month before hunting season. Then i try and shoot every day. I have been shooting nothing but broadheads for the last month.

RE: how often you practice?
 

I try to practice every other day.

RE: how often you practice?

RE: how often you practice?
 

I try to everyday and on weekends go to the range

RE: how often you practice?
 

I try to practice every other day or so. Usually about 36 arrow.

RE: how often you practice?
 

I shoot at least a dozen arrows every day. Sometimes I'll shoot a dozen arrows several times a day, just to relax. It pushes my 'reset' button. ;)

RE: how often you practice?
 

I shoot daily! I got the backyard buck and I shoot off the balcony everytime I go by the backdoor! :)

RE: how often you practice?
 

I try to shoot every night and maybe once over the weekend. I have been really going at it hard the last couple weeks since I switched to the WB rest, trying to get it tuned ~ I am giving it until Monday ~ if by then it is not tuned I am going back to the BoDoodle.
