It’s called buck fever, but in
reality it’s simple fear of failure.
We see a big buck and immediately
our conscious mind begins to categorize everything that could possibly go
wrong. We are filled with doubt. We think about shots we’ve missed in the past.
Our mind replays those misses and we miss again.
The most effective way to fight
buck fever is to spend hours practicing on the range. Practice builds both
confidence and muscle memory.
When a shop presents itself,
don’t think about shots you missed. Focus your thoughts on the shots you have
made. You’ll be amazed at the results.
