Ep. 38 Bowhunting Simplified: Tuning, Arrows, Accuracy & Target Panic - Brad Mills

from The Hunting Dad Podcast

In this episode of The Hunting Dad Podcast, I sit down with Brad from Triple B Archery in Owensboro Kentucky to break down the world of modern bowhunting and talk about some of the biggest things bowhunters tend to overthink. From arrow spine, FOC and arrow weight to bow tuning, grip, draw weight and speed, Brad explains what actually matters when it comes to building an accurate and dependable hunting setup. The guys also dive into paper tuning, center shot, modern bow technology and why sometimes keeping things simple is the best approach. They also get into one of the most frustrating problems bowhunters can face: target panic. Jacob and Brad share their personal experiences battling it, different release styles, and what helped them become more confident and consistent shooters. And, of course, there are plenty of hunting stories along the way—including forgotten releases, dry fires, equipment mistakes and a few lessons learned the hard way. The big takeaway? Stop obsessing over the latest gear and complicated setups. Build a bow that fits you, tune it properly, practice until you're accurate and, most importantly, put the arrow where it needs to go.
