Practice the 2 second shot, draw and release within 2-3 seconds, sometimes that’s all you’ll get.
Don’t “be ready”, practice drawing and shooting in 2 seconds. At first your groups go to hell, but you eventually dial in to releasing at the first good look. It builds confidence in the rush.
My first was small 5x5. I was totally amped, but we saw much bigger in the area. I've been holding out for a mature one for the area. Maybe this year, but I'm running out of time at 64. I'll shoot a cow on the last day, love the venison.
