[B]So besides my little target panic problem, I also have another problem. Last year on my elk hunt, we were doing some midday practice shooting. I decided to try some between pin distances. Now I know I should have been practicing this all along but I wasn't. Kind of like I should be exercising every day! Anyway, I really struggled with it. I don't mean just high and low, I couldn't hit anywhere near the bullseye. It almost seems like another form of target panic, I couldn't concentrate on both holding between pins and a clean release at the same time. I did figure out, however, that if I "measured" the holdover by centering the pins and then concentrated aiming with the upper pin, I was much more accurate. How do you guys do it?[/B]

That's what I do as well. I use the upper pin a Lil high. I'm going back to single pin after this season.

Same here, I aim between pins then look at what the upper pin is aiming at & concentrate on just the upper pin.

[B]I may do the same thing soon. Since all of my kill shots thus far have been 20y and in, I haven't needed the other pins yet anyway. Are you thinking just a single pin or a slider sight? I'm thinking a slider for deer hunting. I figure if I ever get a long shot, I should have time to adjust the sight anyway. I would switch back to the 5 pin for elk hunting since the ranges are likely to be longer. It's something to think about anyway.[/B] 5.) Ohbuckhunter - 09/14/2013

[B]Holy Crap, that is quite a price tag! I'll likely be looking for a more budget friendly solution! [/B]:re:

somtimes my target panic gets so bad its like i'm having a seizure, plus i get a twitch in my left check..

I never had that problem. If it was like a 25 yd shot I put the bull's eye/deer in the middle and sent the arrow.
Same at 35yds. I'm thinking that you are shooting a speed bow so ya shouldn't have that much problem. Just some practice at judging yardage. Now if your trying to hit X rings like that way it might be kinda tough. 9.) bluecat - 09/16/2013
