LEARN ARCHERY: Advanced Aiming- The best tip for shooting a compound bow more accurately!

[@chadminor2360]

After 20 years of shooting pistol and rifle, this video just changed the game for me as a new bow shooter. The best example I can give is that at 70 yards, trying to focus on the front sight I only hit the target 2/6 times. Following this instruction, I was 6/6 with three in the kill zone. Fantastic instruction.

[@sjeverett75]

When shooting pistols and rifles, you're supposed to focus on the target and let the front sight blur out. Thats why you started shooting better. You finally, after 20 years, learned how to aim your gun.

[@chadminor2360]

@@sjeverett75 according to every military and law enforcement firearms instructor (of which I am one) in the USA, you focus on your front sight. That’s why we teach “front sight, front sight, slack, pause, squeeze” to new recruits. I don’t know where you learned to shoot, but you have a lot to learn.

Chad, I was thinking the same thing. This is just the opposite of how i was trained in pistol shooting. Why is archery opposite for handgun? Which one is right? Do I need to change my pistol focus or my archery focus? Well, time to go to the ranges and experiment.

[@timbow50]

Josh, I've been shooting/hunting with a bow since 1963, before the compound was invented. Done it all and I wish every archer in the world could see your learning videos BECAUSE you and your techniques are 100% the best. 👍👍🔥

Great advice! After a few minutes letting my eye get comfortable with the focus shift, I shot groups half the size of my previous ones, now I'm shooting the same accuracy but 20yards further! Keep it coming!!!

[@brandielynn7681]

Great advice and makes since. I tell children to focus on whatever it is they're aiming for. The bowling pin you want to hit, where you want the golf ball to land, the basketball basket, the place you want your baseball to go etc. And this doesn't just apply to sports. Whatever you focus on that is ahead of you is how you can accurately achieve getting to that point or goal. Again, great advice and helped me tremendously with aiming and shooting my bow.

[@rakkup7572]

I just got a bow tune from my shop and I asked him to take a quick look at me shot process. He was cool enough to help and saw one thing that I needed to know badly. So the only thing he said was just hold my shot position until the arrow hits the target. That tightened my groups and increased my dot accuracy. So simple

[@RenM908]

Picking Archery back up. Did it when I was a kid from ages 8-13 with my dad (who still hunts compound to this day) but haven’t done it since. I’m in my early thirties now and this has definitely helped my grouping at 30yards tremendously in about an hour (that’s the length of my indoor range) I was so amazed.

[@mystycim]

As a new archer, this idea sounds spot on, I`m so going to try it out once I got my bow adjusted for myself.

[@jackhammer0925]

[@adublbeatz8656]

I still have to work on, already being on what Im about to shoot, but this video makes all of the sense! I had stopped using a bow in 2005 because of injuries. Just got back into it last year. For me, it wasn't like "riding a bike". Lol. It was literally like learning something new. I harvested last year with it. But still felt like something was wrong. I watched this vid (along with some others you posted) 2 weeks ago and started trying this technique. I can already see and feel the difference. Thanks for sharing. I also respect the disclaimer at the beginning.

Damn did my groups improve today! Awesome video and great tip! It just felt so natural to focus on the pin when youre in the moment. But this helped alot.... again! Damn i feel like im getting old, I completely forgot to focus on the target.

[@willc3384]

I always found this interesting. For pistols I've become accustomed to focusing on the front sight and letting the target blur so I've shot bows this way also...I'll give focusing on the target a try.

[@terminalbrd]

I was just thinking about the same thing. I've grown accustomed to being constantly told to "focus on the front sight" that it never occurred to me that there would ever be a different way of shooting.

[@DrNickRiveria]

[@rebel1187]

Either of you tried it yet?

[@willc3384]

REBEL Nope. State is on lockdown. Range closed. (Hawaii)

[@ericsoto234]

That’s because, with a pistol, you are controlling the angle of the barrel apart from your line of sight. With a bow, your anchor point(face/corner of mouth/tip of nose) IS the “back sight”.

[@Marco-te3mp]

Thank you for the confirmation. New shooter, just started this week. You are 100% correct. When I focus on the black circle on target it bullseye. (I color the center black) I Didn't know why i made a great shot. Thinking back there was allot less movement. In fact i was really relax.

[@sthompson447]

Great video! I recently saw Joel Turner talking about this same thing in his ShotIQ course as well. It’s made a huge difference in my accuracy.

[@MortMe0430]

I had my first archery lesson as an adult (and my first time firing my bow in about 15 years) last week. I went from not even hitting the paper at all to getting into the intermediate rings. My aim only started noticeably improving when I started basically ignoring my sight pins and looking around / past them.

[@rootjr.3658]

This works for me as well. I thought that it was just because I grew up shooting instinctively. I never told anyone about it, because I thought I would be ridiculed. I assumed most compound shooter aimed just line they do with a rifle.

[@driftlesshunter9200]

After 34 years of bowhunting, I stopped using a pin last year. I "frame it & claim it" using an EZ-V sight now. I don't even have to remind myself to focus on the target instead of the pin, because there are no pins! It took some practice, but I will never go back to using a pin or crosshair for bowhunting. I don't even use a rangefinder for practice any more. Haven't even touched my rangefinder since last spring turkey season. A doe took me by surprise yesterday morning. I still don't know how she got within bow range without me noticing her, but the ground was damp (quiet). I think she may have been the first deer that I harvested from a hang-on stand in a sitting position. I am usually up long before they reach me. Now that my eyes are older, a sight without pins works better for me. I only share all this, because it fits with what you are sharing. Focus on the target!

[@anggeeadlof9043]

Had the bow set up at a pro shop. It performed just fine kzbin.infoUgkxQEKUoxLWwayEDZR0NKB-5limn4MBU-2L . And I would say this is a good starting now that I could pass down to my son when he is older.But the package was missing the release and a nock was missing from one arrow.Dealing with customer support was terrible. They suggested I buy a new release rather than correct their own quality control issue because it’s to expensive for the. to ship it out from China.Update: manufacturer got back to me and resolved the issue. I retract the above statement.

Glad I watched this. Trying my hand at archery soon and apparently the aiming technique is the opposite of firearms aiming. I've been shooting for 20 years, 8 time expert in the Marines. When shooting firearms you focus on the front sight post. If your target is clear you're doing it wrong. Will definitely be an adjustment to focus on the target and not the sight.

Dude, this just helped me in the most unexpected way. Okay, so of course I'm looking for archery tips for myself. Normal. Thank you. I'm absolutely going to try this tomorrow when I practice. BUT, I'm also writing a fantasy novel and, I must admit, working out the logistics for all of the species gets a little technical. Now I've decided that my dark elves are awesome archers, but they also have cat's eyes. This decision was pure inspiration and I'm honestly looking for a way to justify it. Why is this relevant to the cost of tea in China? Because the shape of a cat's pupils allow them to look at a narrow area and keep *everything* in that area in focus. That means that the mouse, the blades of grass between them and the mouse, are all in perfect focus the whole time they're looking. It helps them get perfect aim. (Then they decide to pounce, their pupils go all cray cray in a last ditch effort to gather just a bit more information, and they lose their minds and do their lee roy jenkens bolt for the prize.) Now I knew this little factoid about cats because I love my kitty so, duh. I also love archery and I'm interested. But this video just tied it all in on why my little dark elves are such rockin' archers. They don't have the focus problem that people do! When they narrow in on their target, everything between them and the target is clear as a bell. They don't have to choose. So the information you just provided is going in my book. I'm so grateful that your handle is going in my thank you notes at the beginning of the book. "Bow Only Outdoors" will be in the notes unless you have something you like better. Inspiration comes from the most unexpected places, but it is rare and when it comes, it's absolutely wonderful. So thank you for finally closing my loop!

[@ijaxon6675]

I release as soon as I get a good sight picture. Hunting for the "perfect" shot just leaves to pin travel. He's correct, nobody can hold anything completely still. Slow controlled breathing and release on exhale. Inhale before the aim, exhale, first good placement and release.

I think its verry interesting what opinions all the different shooters have. On a pistol you focus on the sights on a rifle you should focus on the target on a bow with some sort of aiming device most poeple say you should focus on the pin. Now you say focus on the target witch i have to do anyways because i shoot classic intuitive. My rule of thumb is the one that hits the target is right. So if you dont hit it you just havent found your style. I noticed to if i shoot rifle im much more calm maybe its because i dont see the movement of the rifle that much.

[@BowOnlyOutdoors]

Absolutely. It’s your perception of the sight and the target and what you’re comfortable with. Most archers find it most comfortable with this method because of the extra movement, but not everyone is the same.

Great advice. I concentrate on the target. I was taught that in the Marine Corps. You want the rear/peep sight and the target to be clear. And you want the front sight post/pin to be blurred. If you're a hu ter, you want to see the movement of your target. So you can alter your shot. You will definitely shoot better. It might not make sense, but once you're accustomed to it, you'll wonder why you did it the other way in the first place.
