not slowing down the pace at which i should shoot which effects my accuracy  

Shooting too many arrows too quickly and losing concentration. Torquing the string sometimes after I get tired.

NOT SHOOTING EVERYDAY

I used to shoot a lot of arrows at one time.  What I've gone to is a 6 arrow quiver (6 in my arrowmaster).....and then retrieve.  I may even go to 4 in the future.

Less arrows and I know fatigue doesn't creep into my practice.

I'm also only shooting 30 or so, per session.

Not straightening out my bow arm elbow. I had surgery a couple of years ago on that elbow. If I am not careful, it will start to give on me, resulting in a high-right hit.

Not taking enough time between shots.

Dropping my bow arm and shooting for too long of a period, into the fatigue stage.

Curveman,

But isn't it awesome when you do put that arrow between those trees, or just under or over that limb???  It gives me more confidence just knowing that I can make that tough shot.  My hunting shots are easier, so I just pull up and shoot, without worrying about it.

for me it's shooting from the same old spot 20 yards from the target day in and day out. plucking the string. loosing concentration. not picking a spot.     who am I kidding?  those aren't bad habits. chewing red man like Red Beastmaster  or smoking like String Cutter are bad habits.    

With target panic its a constant problem. I have to work thru each and every shot and sometimes that real hard to do. Then my shooting goes all to hell!!!! I have to work at it every day.

After watching Masters of the Barebow Vol. 3 I realized I did not follow through to a consistant termination of the shot. So, I would saw if I was to pick a couple of things I am working on each day is to come to a solid 2 pt. anchor and then when release of the string "happens" I continue to reach and touch my shoulder or beyond with the string fingers in a relaxed manner.

DROPPING MY BOW ARM.

Does anyone have a solution?  When I think about it and follow through ( looking through my window after the shot) the arrow goes where it is suppose to.  I don't drop my arm when hunting, but do it on 3D's.  I think the extra time looking at the 3D's makes me forget to follow through, thus dropping the arm.

Not anchoring my bow arm.  Anchoring your string hand determines how much gas you put into the arrow, but your bow arm is 90% of where your arrow goes.  

I forget to anchor my bow arm and the shot is to the left, every time.

My worst habit Is not hitting my anchor point (short draw once In a great while) and also torquing my bow arm at the shot. Other then that I feel good about my form.

I shoot to quick. If I have 6 arrows I will shoot them one after another. This is why I limit myself with no more than 3 arrows, I usually shoot just 2 arrows then retrieve em'.

Solid anchor , and shooting way too many robinhoods,      

Shooting too many arrows too fast. It's like fishing in the winter, I have to force myself to slow down. Usually only shoot 3 at a time like stated above.

Jeff,
     Just curious, what do you mean by achoring your bow arm? Are you not releasing until your bow arm is still?

2nd that one. good thing its not on my anchor cheek.

Not concerntrating enough!!!  I start to have fun, then I lose focus, then I get pissed because I shoot poorly.  Concentration is my biggest problem practicing.
