I don't. I used look at the arrow in my peripheral to line up my left and right. Nowadays I just take a laser stare at the smallest part of the bullseye. Interested to see how everyone else hits they're mark. Hopefully I can keep up my instinctive accuracy. I shoot about 200 arrows a day.

Like above, I look where I want to hit, and let it fly. Course I'm not a very good shot, so take that for what it's worth! Like Bisch, to my knowledge, I use nothing for reference other than boring a hole with my eye on what I'm wanting to hit. When it's an animal, I like to say, "I draw a starvation bead on em.." aim at it like you are starving, and have to hit that animal to have a meal to eat! Good Huntin, and God Bless, Rusty

We are pretty much all in the same boat. I know there's a few gap shooters around. I tried it years ago and it wasn't for me. Though, years ago if I had the instruction Draco gave in the sticky, things may have been different. I just really like my subconscious doing the ranging for me.
One more question. What is y'all instinctive shooters max range to shoot at an animal? Mine is 25 yards. And everything needs to perfect to take that. I prefer inside 20.

I look straight down the arrow at the target as I draw, by the time I hit anchor 100% of my focus in on the center of the target. I think this has helped me develope a more consistent/repeatable shot cycle. I dont even realize I'm doing it anymore. BUT, I'd have a hard time hitting Kate Smith in the butt with a hand full of rice, so, dont listen to me!
