[QUOTE="Gcan, post: 1604068, member: 102867"] Public land: I get that. Killed a lot of whitetail on patches of land other people wouldn’t think held a squirrel. Buck Fever: Exactly. They start thinking of how cool they will look in the pictures as they are pulling the trigger. Just adds a level of fear of failure into the mind. Can’t think of two things same time. I understand how it happens. But some have said it here best, practice, practice, practice. I’m from the aim small miss small school. I picked a spot and never saw that critter again till it was down. Dropping your arm is a real issue in archery. The mind is a funny thing. It seems to confuse timing a lot of times. People release and drop their arms at the same time trying to see where the arrow is going. Often people move their heads before they fire. I see people do this on targets and also animals. The trigger goes off and the head pops right up to get a clear view of the miss. Follow thru is about the most important thing and its the first thing lost in excitement. Watch the bullet hit the spot and it almost always works out. It’s a lesson hard learned, and sadly harder still for the poor animal. I’m a big believer in training. Unfortunately, many of the young shooter/hunters I see don’t seem to need or want any. [/QUOTE]
