I LOVE EVERYTHING about shooting a bow except for one tiny thing. Hi, my name’s Bill, and I have target panic.
Hi, Bill!
For the last couple of years, I’ve had to hunt with a crossbow. Nothing wrong with that. Nothing against the horizontal bow. To me, though, it feels like I’m wearing Depend Fit-Flex Underwear for Men. On the outside of my pants.
Every pro I spoke with has had to deal with TP too. Shoot long enough and you’ll experience it, they say, even if you stupid, buddy.” And then I shoot another half-dozen arrows, two of which follow the first into the bricks. That’s $39 worth of stupid. Yep, that flinch knows who’s boss now.
