hi guys, here is my new way to practice.i use a 6 inches balloon that i hang on my target butt.i consentrate on the 6`` balloon and shoot!!! i know that when i here a pop that i have hit the vital zone. i use 6`` to make me a better shoot.since i use this method i have improve my acuracy alot.hope it will help you!! may the spirit of fred bear guide ours arrows!!!

I am a much better shot a balloons than any other target. I always take a bag of 50 or 100 to events "for the kids" and stay up late with all the big kids shooting the heck out of them. I wish I could shoot deer the way I can shoot a balloon!

Now shoot at the one brightest spot on the balloon and see if you don't pop more of them.

Yep, that's what I do. I shoot at the thick spot right at the end of the balloon. All too often I don't stop shooting until I run out of balloons or I get tired of blowing them up.

My son and I have a little friendly competition seeing who can pop the balloon first.

I took a plastic water bottle and cut around it about 2-3" below the cap. Nailed the cap to an old broom handle stuck in the ground about 5' infront of my target. Makes a perfect clear cup to hold pine cones. You get tired of just sticking arrows in a bale sometimes. Fun to shoot and cost $0.00. Tried a tennis ball but it was hard not to focus on a big yellow spot. The pine cone is harder to focus on.

hey! thanks WestTnMan i will surely try your practice method.seens like alot of fun.may the spirit of fred bear guide ours arrows!

My son and I use ping pong balls. I hang them with fishing line about two feet in front of my main target. It's alot of fun when the theres a little breeze.

We use those plastic practice golf balls. Sometimes we Tee them up all over the yard, or if feeling lazy and the lawn is mowed, I just  toss 'em all over the yard.

those, along with a few scattered milk jugs, are great wanderingtargets for judo points. When you get a solid hit on a golf ball, it takes flight across the yard.

Another one is 2 liter soda bottles. Shoot at the cap.

you'll be amazed how fast shooting small targets will tighten up your form, and your groups.

You'll find if you are missing the golf balls, its within an inch. Which is pretty good shooting for randome targets at random distances.

Balloons are a hoot.  I'm gonna try that pine cone idea this afternoon, too.  What a great idea.  Tge
