Wha?
If instinctive archery is dead, best not tell all the folks at our local archery club.
More instinctive archers than those using modern stuff.
Lots more fun, too.
As to whether practicing instinctive archery would help with point shooting, it does.
But not nearly as good as practicing point shooting with your shootin' iron.
Airguns are really good, too, especially if the pellets or bbs can be seen in flight.
