I try to shoot 30 shots a day sometimes it is a little less, but for the most part it is spot on.

For the past month I have shot every day that I got off work before dark. Which is about 20 of the days.

I shoot at known yardages, from 10-50 yards. I mix it up with different targets. Bag, 3d, broadhead.

I usually shoot about 20-30 arrows a day. Or until it gets dark.

Great idea of a thread MGH PA!!!


How many of you are shooting your bows everyday (or even every other day)?
3 to 4 days a week, sometimes more.

How many shots are you taking during each session? 100 arrows or so. 2 arrows a time shooting.

What types of shooting are you practicing? From the ground and from my tree stand. Sitting, leaning, twisting, not canting my bow, you name it I practice in every position.

Unknown yardages? 5 to 20 yards is 95% of my practicing. From 20 to 25 yards I practice some but not very much. If I'm going out west elk hunting I'll practice a ton more from 20 to 30 yards.

BH's? Always practice with my BH's on.

FP's? Never at home. Only at a 3-d shoot.

Good post, Steve! The shooting from different positions is great practice, and I plan to add that in this year as well.

Okbowhunter, what's with the tape on your bag target? Creep tuning?


As a side note, I spent most of April, May, and June doing nothing by drawing/aiming drills without really firing the bow. RJ suggested it, and I think I'm all the better for spending those few months just getting settled in.

I shoot almost everyday, miss a day here and there, but I fling at least half a dozen to as many as a couple hundred nearly everyday.
