When is it time to break out the bows and start practicing?

[flywise]

Break mine out about mid sept.

[TheHammer]

I’ll shoot once a week from January to June or so. I try to shoot 2-3 times a week from Mid summer until season starts.

It’s never time to put the bows up!!!!

Once or twice a month, year round. Kid got into 4H archery, kind of keeps me going.

I normally get rolling mid July. My springtime, I usually swap the bow out for the golf clubs.

[Patton]

I hunt all year long so I try to shoot all year long.

I just usually pull out the boom stick and slam one, then stick an arrow in the hole and say that's what's up...

So your an outdoors TV personality?

I shoot about 10 arrows the week before a hunt. It's like riding a bike. I'd like to shoot more but don't have the time right now.

[Jspradley]

I'm curious now, for all yall folks who pick your bows up right before season, what's yalls max range and what sort of groups are you getting?

[J.B.]

putting together some new arrows this week and shot some last night, great to get ramped up again!

[Texas Stalker]

Just started back up. Definitely a perishable skill. All over the place starting out.

I start shooting around the beginning of August. I don’t practice past 40, mostly 20-30 yard range. I try not to make my setups where there is any shot past 25 yards, that way there is no temptation. Whitetails can be so jumpy and quick, I don’t see how anyone could shoot at one past 40 yards. As far as grouping, at 20 I shoot for 1”. At 30, 2”, and at 40 I really don’t care, just do it for kicks. At 40 i can keep it in the bigger dots on my target, which are probably 3-4” if I had to guess.

Thanks!

I know my shooting falls apart past 30 if I don't practice regularly so I was curious where other folks are.

Practice at 20, I'll shoot a few 10 rings at 40 just to make sure sights still on. Basically between now and opening day I'll shoot a couple of dozen times each weekend. Feeder is within 20 yds from ladder stand. Every deer, turkeys or hogs have been 20 or less for me to stick.

I usually start a couple weeks before my first hunt.....unless I've made some changes. I haven't pull it out since the end of January.



How many follow my practice schedule?

This is me to a tee for whitetail hunting. This year I’ve been shooting already as I got a new rig for my elk hunt. Shooting out to 70 yards has rejuvenated my desire to shoot again. I will be moving out to 100 yards in about 2 weeks when I move to my new home.
