I totally agree, the best shot's I've made I have been in the moment and not even thinking about the shot. Just trust in your training, visualization of the shot then execute.
My feet are set, my hand on my release is set, my grip is set, then draw my bow back into anchor. I tell myself "ANCHOR" by that time my peep is lined up around my sight housing, my pin has settled on the target. Then I tell myself "AIM", after that I tell myself "HERE WE GO" to keep my mind in the present. Then I say "PRESS PRESS PRESS" increasing back tension until my shot breaks. If I do it every time the arrow normally goes into the bullseye, within reason. But if I miss a step and miss the bullseye then I know I messed up and how to fix it.
I have been using an open stance but my bow arm (really shoulder) is fatiguing to fast. I am going to try the closed traditional T stance. Thank you.🏹🤠👍
The best thing for buck fever is seeing more deer and just being used to seeing them with freaking out. If you shoot every deer you see, every deer is a trigger. Passing on smaller bucks helps for when the big boys walk in.
I also heard visually imagining the shot and I like you mentioned it because it's a great tip. Thqnk you for making this video also, it is already helping me!
I was watching a video of Cam Hanes shooting at 160 yds and I'm really surprised about his release form. Seems like the tip of his finger is hitting the trigger and it really looks like he punches it; but he's getting 12" groups at that distance. I guess when you do something for thirty years you just do it the way you do it.
I've been shooting a compound bow for the last 6 years with good results. This year is different. I have been more conscience of my shot routine and have been working on my anchor point a whole lot. As you said here, the more you do it the more it becomes routine. You have confirmed what I've been thinking these last few months. Thanks. I am now a subscriber.
Hey brother I’d like to ask you a favor, I love watching your videos. I’d like for you to do a video on the new Mathews atlas. Hardly anyone does a review on the ld bows that I need. You did a great job on the traverse, and I d love to see a video on the atlas as well. I know it might take you some time to get one in but still. Thanks in advance brother.
My timing mantra is: this is the time, this is the place, and you are the man. Once my hinge release clicks my mantra start in my head and I can only say that mantra twice, if my arrow still knocked, I cancel the shot. Thanks for you advice and " keep it in the middle " !!
I developed my shot routine it took awhile but its exactly the same every time but im doing what you say not too when i come into my anchor its always the same but is that something i should try to correct
I get my best practice when no ones around the house. No interruptions. I can practice at an outside or inside range if it's not crowded etc. I'm referring to good solid practice. Not just slinging arrows. Working on a clean correct shot cycle more than score. More good info here. 👍👍👀
You should try practicing when people ARE around. There are lots of good "practice" shooters. The guys/gals that can keep it together when people are watching are the ones that prevail.
Inside Out Precision I wasn t clear on what I meant. I was referring to like when you are working with something new like a new bow or release or whatever. I like to be uninterrupted so I can focus better. And yes, shooting for score somewhere is very important to learn self control etc. Anxiety has ruined millions of shots when one real,y needs to be in control.
Been watching your videos.. what state are you located in and do you own a your own bow shop? Would love to get a bow set up by an actual true professional like yourself
I utterly appreciate all your videos. I am a long range one mile plus .338 Lapua rifle shooter. Then, one day I picked up a bow and cannot put it down six bows later. So far, I have learned everything I know about bows from UA-cam. You are by far the best bow instructor on UA-cam. Yes, I know about the others which I want mention any names. I thank you for all the help and guidance. Thank You again!
Best thing for not having buck fever don't hunt the eastern states tons of videos on youtube , those people can't handle a twenty yard shot In a tree. And hunting the high mountains to the west they would all have heart attacks from climbing a mountain there so out of shape..............

Now, this is a great video!!! Thanks so much!!! From Patagonia, argentina
One of the best shooting vids.
This is just what I needed. I appreciate your comments and explanation. Your video has helped me tremendously.
Excellent advice.

Sounds like the Joel Turner process. Did you take his class?
@@Nick-we6rd No BUT I did shoot a 3d course with him and one of his staff shooters at ETAR
I have been using an open stance but my bow arm (really shoulder) is fatiguing to fast. I am going to try the closed traditional T stance. Thank you.🏹🤠👍
Just what I needed to clean up my grouping and pressure situations when hunting.
ey Kellen!!
much appreciated!!!!
keep up the great work 💪

Nice Video! A good reminder for basics. As a sugestion... there's a 2021 bow that nobody is talking about (PSE DRIVE NXT). Maybe a review of it soon?
Thanks man!
Joel would be proud of this. Excellent advice.
You literally critiqued Cameron Hanes technique completely. I shoot just like him. Great video keep up the great work 👍🏻

Good stuff keep up the good info !

Can you do a video for Target panic?
He already has...
Here your go! ua-cam.com/video/uYyzyeFv_S4/v-deo.html
What do you focus on the pin or the x when aiming

Hey Nathan! We're in Springfield OR. I don't own the shop but its called The Bow Rack
Don’t hesitate to get your bow set up by the Bow Rack. I live in FL and I send my bow to Kellen. 👌🏻
Great information 👏🏼
