RE: Instinctive shooters?
You shoot traditional like you would a slingshot, just look at the center of the target and release...
With practice it becomes second nature, similiar to hitting a wide receiver with a football...

I pick a spot, tuft of hair or a dark spot, on the target I want my arrow to hit. I will concentrate on this spot until I come to my anchor point and wait a second and release my arrow with a good follow thru and my arrow hits its mark! For me the biggest thing is concentrating on my mark, I'll never loose that mark. Like the old saying says, "Aim Small, Miss Small"! Its a blast, I love it!

Thats when I shoot my best, I'll pick out an old arrow hole in my target and put another right in its place! Thats fun stuff!
