RE: Bow Accuracy
I practice every day and often shoot very tight groups and I could consistently hit the pie plate sized targets at out to 60 yards . . . but they are at known yardages at stationary targets and not creatures of the forest.
I believe that we react the way we practice. A famous handgunner coined once that only Perfect Practice makes Perfect. By practicing daily, shooting form and technique becomes something that we don' t have to concentrate on. It becomes almost automatic. When we achieve this level, we can devote our concentration on ranging estimates and all the other hunting challenges.
I do pretty well at targets . . . but animals are tough . . . and I' ve never seen one with a bull spot tatooed over its kill zone or at a known yardage. [My Yardage-Pro only has + or - 1 yard acuracy]
