Anyone shoot this way? I just learned about it for the first time this past week on a bear hunt and I have to say I like it.
It makes a bow loud, and can harm tiller on selfbows. I have seen folks try it. I tried it. It can work if you have a bow like tradtech where you can adjust tiller. I sure wouldn't want to use it on a hunt. The reason I went to traditional bows was the usefulness and simplicity of instintive shooting. Your goal is for both limbs to exert the exact same force to the arrow at the same time. When you string walk, that changes, and then you get noise, and IMO poor arrow flight. Shoot your trad bow thru paper by holding different places on the string, and see what happens with the paper tear.
You know I never thought about it harming the bow. I do pretty well out to 20 yards instinctive which is plenty. I just thought it was kinda neat but I surely don't want to hurt my bows. I'll say they are louder at the shot as well. At the same time though I was dumping them right on top one another right out to 35 yards :D but I think I'll stick to my instinctive style. I just never heard of string walking before and this guy was just stacking them up on the target.
