  • Dan Hawke

    Haven't been able to open Bowhunters last two videos. Why??

    Hope they get the problem resolved soon!

  • Jack

    Same here Dan, can't open the last 2 vids??? I have AOL and I know they're having issues, but I can open other vids?

  • Greg Ginn

    Same here:(!! Won't open……….

  • BOB ARNAO

    CAN'T OPEN….WILL NOT SHOW VIDEO !!!!

  • Tom

    Same here. You boys need to get your act together and fire whoever your I.T. guy is (I'm guessing it's someones kid or brother-in-law). Pay Attention Bowhunter Magazine. We subscribers don't like our time wasted anymore than you do. Your wasting our time. Quit it.

    Randy says ," He cant figure out why he has more bad shots at 20 yards than 40 yards." Its all in the brain. There is a new program coming to Bow Hunters, call Motion Memory Archery, that is designed to train the brain to focus when your excited and keep your body calm. Should be posting video of these techniques at the end of the week.

    BTW, Hope to see you on our site Randy! Alison brings years of training top Professionals in the golf industry to the Bow Hunter this season. Controlling your body and emotions when your over a shot could cost you the round, which is liken to Buck Fever.

  • Henry Merritt

    I had NO problem openin their videos

  • Mark

    This is why I have to aim with only one eye rather than both eyes open. I have tried to aim with both eyes open but my eyes tend to wonder toward the head gear

  • Brian

    I can not open anything here!

  • Ralph

    Closed captioning as I do bowhunt too!

    "Aim small……….miss small…………."

  • Delaware Bowhunter

    the average shot is 18 yards….when you can see their whiskers you're thinking he can hear your heart pounding. Never look at his rack and avoid eye contact! I pick out a tuft of fur or a darker marking and focus on that. Watch out that you don't get too focused on the animal and fail to see a branch or sapling between you and the kill zone! And always remember if it's next to a tree "think tree………hit tree"…….put that tree image right out of your sight picture, as I guarantee you will drill the tree…………."aim small…….miss small"……..
