I practice and hunt with my quiver on. I try not to change a thing in my setup from practice to the field.

I like to keep my setup as close to hunting setup all year as well. except for las minute pin adjustments.

I have found the my shots will be off to the right if I don't have my quiver on. Throws my "balance" off.

We even go as far as keeping arrows in our quivers and have practice arrows loose so the weight stays the same. Is that to extreme. ;D

I do the same thing ;D I have also found and don't laugh at me

I try to practice on my lunch hour at work. I have found that if I am wearing shoes with heals, I have to take them off or there is a difference in my shots

;D ;D ;D
Kind like shooting standing on Rocks. that are wobbly if your wearing the heels. ;D Good practice though. wish I could shoot at the office they call a bow a weapon.

How often to do you practice? during season? off season?

I used to shoot 2-4 hours a day , for years but the last two years have found no time.
That being said....I learned one thing about what works best for me.
Less is better.
Once I am on the mark I shoot only a little bit....maybe a 1/2 hour or less and only every other day or less.
This allows for far less opportunity for me to develop a bad habit and therefore reinforce it by more range time.
Alot of people who are very good shooters have told me the same thing applies to them.
But....
First you have to get that good and then back off.
That's my opinion as of now

I do the same thing but I balance the potential of what I may have by shooting 2 of the four in the quiver and then reloading before starting again.

Lucky you!

I keep the same amount of arrows in my quiver also. I'm not sure if it is a mental thing or not?

The Archery shop is only 5 minutes from the office so I run down there on my lunch hour
