- Learning how to make the shot in a real bowhunting situation on live game with a recurve or longbow demands a simple yet effective process that can be easily achieved through “focus and execution” techniques! www.sanlidaoutdoor.com/web/?i...
RC's great! I've been following Robert for a couple of years now and I feel right at home listening to him. He, and you have been the most influential in my development. Thanks again Jeff!👍
You are very true Jeff in your statements.
I learned Gap shooting a year ago, but I noticed that I go more and more to Instinctive shooting, with some Gap including in my head.
I did my first competition today for 2024, its started up great, but after 15 different goals(3D), I lost my Focus, and started to miss the last 5 targets.
Ok I was tired( I have some health issues), but Im pretty sure that due to my bad condition, I lost my focus today.
Now Im eating iron tabletts, and will continue My Gym excercis, to increase my Condition, and with that I hope I get my long term focus back, thanks for a great Video, I will check out Robert Carter as well
Amen, Great Advice 👍😎👍
You and robert are a couple of great guys with a ton of knowledge and talent. You are the only two traditional archers that i tune into
Myn shooting has improved so much, thank you, sir
Thanks so much my friend!
Before you even started taking about it..... I said to myself "self...... That's one quiet bow" and self agreed
I love your videos Jeff please don't ever stop putting out Great content 😊
Love this video! Over the years, after deep research into all the aiming methods, I’ve landed in the same mindset.
I never tried the aiming methods. I have nothing against anyone who does. I’ve been geared up to delve into aiming several times. When it comes down to it, I just like the simplicity of shooting like you explained.
Even for 3d, I’m just treating that like hunting and shooting instinctively.
Jeff, I assume you shot this way at the TN Classic? Dang impressive score!
always excellent videos and excellent information. thanks
As you talked about the string materials, my buddy and I were just talking about the differences between d97 and b55 and wishing someone would do a side by side comparison of the two on the same bow where we could see the difference in speed, noise and feel. I’ve always been a b55 guy that builds them and pre stretches them with no issues but have always wondered about the true benefits of d97 vs any negatives. Love the video and ol Robert Carter is one of my absolute favorite follows
The struggle sick has help me as well on flintlock hunting. You , robert and jeff woods all have great channel
Robert is awesome. I've been following him for a couple years. Great info on his videos. I follow you, him, Jason Samkoviak and Chris Spikes. Y'all are all an encyclopedia of trad hunting. God bless
Thanks Brother!
👍🏻
Thanks for the video, the explanations are very good. Please, could you recommend some exercise to develop focus? I consider that it is not easy at all.
Thank you and God bless you.
Nice one Jeff. 2-time Silver Olympic Medalist Jake Kiminski focus' on the target rather than the oly recurve aiming sights. Works for him. Should work for us common folk too.
Yes sir and I’ve actually got a new Olympic Recurve I’m gonna try to master lol I’ve always wanted to see if I could 😁
Aftee 25 years with a compound i made the switch to a hoyt satori 69lb@28inch arrows weigh 880grains tuned to perfection cant wait to get a deer in range next season
Dang! That is going to be a slammer!
I actually have two shot processes that I practice. One multi-step process to maximize stability for target shooting, and another bare-bones process for hunting. Both of my processes use instinctive aiming, and practicing the target shooting process is a good exercise to improve my hunting shot process.
Exactly!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Just love this channel. So much so, that it might even get me into archery!
I just got back to recurve bows after 30 years I got a top archery bow 60 inch at 45 # I'm a 27 inch draw length I'm shooting a 500 grain arrow with 200 grains at 29 inches does that sound good for the bow I've been shooting for about a month now and it seems to work well. I've been shooting archery for about 43 years. I've been watching all your videos and enjoy them and the information that you but out. Thank you
Yes sir that sounds like a very good setup!
You are appreciated!
Love Robert’s channel! He seems like such a good guy.
I agree with everything both of you are saying when it comes to Eastern bow hunting. However, there are Western hunters getting it done past 40 with aiming methods regularly. They are very impressive. But let’s be real, muleys and elk do not jump string as bad as whitetail.
Personally, I shoot instinctively out to 20 and aim and longer yardage. But I just don’t shoot that far! My stands are set up for under 15 yards. I can’t shoot as well as you or Robert, so I keep it close! Lol
Focus and Dedication. Whether it be basketball, baseball, archery, carpentry, the law . . . matters not. Focus and dedication, imo, are the deciding factors separating average and superior. In archery, how ya truly master the accuracy issue is a personal journey. I see as many mediocre gap shooters as instinctive. Consistently placing arrow where intended can't be achieved without focus and dedication. Consistently employing those 2 attitudes then result in confidence. Good luck to all on your journey.
Another awesome video Jeff headed to a 3D shoot today first one since 2010
Man that’s awesome!
I can't shoot a recurve w/o kanting the bow & shoot the arrow off the rest. I can see with my eyes on a bare shaft when the arrow is too weak or too stiff. B4 I hunted deer with a recurve I bowfished only with a recurve on a platform. I did it with a 30 inch draw with a custom recurve that was @ 65 lbs @ 30". So now I'm shooting a lethal 68" bow setup with about 52 lbs @ 30". One thing I did the 5 yrs b4 that was that I was an avid duck hunter & the ducks are moving & I believe that has made me a better bowhunter due to that experience. When I was hunting deer with a old version compound bow I was getting close to deer & never stopped them b4 I shot them. That goes back to the 1st buck I shot on Pearl Harbor Day years ago. When u stop a deer u r just giving up your ambush position. I setup spots in late winter & none of those spots offer me a shot @ like 30 yards. I will checkout Robert Carter & look to sending u a video later in the year of a couple of target bucks from MN.😮😅
I shoot a 45# @ 28".My arrows are 500 spine 30.5", 100 grain tips.510 grains total.Will putting 125 grain pionts change the spine to much?How else to add weight.Should I cut them to 29" and add more weight to the point.They do fly great now.Just need them heavier for the bow.
Jeff is there a website or club page where i can go to find out about the trad shoots that are available here in North Alabama? Ive tried to do some research but a lot of what I found is old and we don’t have a good trad shop over here on the east side of the river. Thanks so much for all your help for us rookies.
Well there aren’t many all traditional shoots really close but the Howard Hill Classic is coming up soon at Tannehill State Park just outside of Birmingham and it’s the best! 4 day shoot! First weekend in June, also Alabama Society Of Traditional Bowhunters has several great events, they’re all usually on Facebook
@@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 thanks so much Jeff! We are praying you guys are safe tonight and that these storms move over you guys🙏
What kind of arrow holder is on your bow? I haven't seen one like it before .
Thanks it’s a Stop The Drop by Gerry DeCaro the best I’ve found! They’re available directly or through Big Jim’s Bow Company 👍🏻
Thank you. Enjoy your videos
Can an incorrect arrow spine too stiff or too weak created a loud bow.
If the arrow is contacting the shelf yes!
100% brother
Another great video, Jeff! I dont know if you'll be able to answer this without seeing it, but im currently anchoring with the back of the fletching touching the tip of my nose. Would you say that's under drawn? It looks like you go back much farther, but i can't tell.
If you’re touching your nose with a feather I’d say you’re drawing plenty far enough and that really works well!
@@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 Thank you!
Is this instinctive or are you able to just focus, aim, fire from many years of experience? I got a small scope recently for my recurve and it helped center my shot, but as you say, the longer I spend aiming the less accurate I seem to be or it ends up veering off to the left. I think the longer it takes you to shoot the more your trigger arm loses that initial spring or stability.
Some relate the drawing of a bow to the swing of a golf club. You can stop the club mid air but it doesn't seem to be as fluent or as clean a shot.
jeff i am a old man 80 years old.. i want to buy a"bear archery" bow at 45 lbs.. how fast would it be in going thru a chronograph on a 500 grain arrow ?? i am looking for a 180 fps . thank you, richard i can' believe it i shot 74 years with a recurve,, 92, 78, 73, 68, 60, 50,, and now a 45.. VERY DEPRESSING.
Lol I’m not sure exactly but it should be pretty close to that 👍🏻
What glove do you shoot
A BearPaw Classic! You can get them from Lancaster for like $20👍🏻
I missed a long beard yesterday at 13 yards… arrow zipped right over him
Oh man! Live animals are a whole different game than people realize and it’s tough to be stealthy enough and still make the shot sometimes but at least you got that close to one! 😁🦃
