[Lever Action]

For the bows I am shooting, off a solid rest is the quickest way to watch accuracy fall apart. I find that shooting off a rest requires a soft and very smooth base which allows the bow to move. Perhaps its due to the heavy recoil my bows are producing but whatever the reason, this is what works best for a solid rest.
Better yet is to use the sling in a military hold and brace that bow arm. Allows the same movement with stability. I have fewer errors (it seems) free handing than I do when shooting off the tripod.
I dont do anything as suggested (never have) in prepping the shot. I take in a breath and hold a second or two before slapping the trigger. I shoot one eye closed and never watch the flight through the scope.
I am the chi chi Rodriguez of shooting. Doing it all wrong and always in the top of the pack
