Absolutely Grahame, a lot of learning going on. And this is exactly why I wonder about the diatribe I hear often in regards to Instinctive Shooting. Some seem to close their minds and adopt the Look and Shoot mentality with no further explanation beyond - "it sorta clicks", "Bam it just happens" I am sure this is enough for a great many people and I respect that it is enough for them. I like to ponder these things, refine my idea's and expand my Knowledge and am happy to be proven wrong or to change my position because learning more has enlightened me. But there is not much to learn in Bam or Sorta
I draw the comparision to Trap Shooting often as the similarities in the Sport at least when I participate make them mutually beneficial. Never will have the money to play Trap / Skeet and the other Shotgun Sports enough to become proficient at them, then again I rarely practice Flu Flu Shots and its cheap bordering on free

which perhaps leads to another common shortcoming amoungst Trad Archers - lack of proper practice.
As you say, many do not posses the ability to throw well, same with shooting a Bow "Instictively"??? Hopefully these Folks do not become frustrated and choose to continue to learn. Perhaps shooting with an external reference like a Sight or being taught to Gap or String Walk may work for them, perhaps some of these become Administrators in the Sport and impose their limitations on the rest of us [ forgive me - I've had the Flu for 2 weeks and I feel better this morning and a little Cheeky
