Michiganbowhunter_SQ2 Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 Not I. Think I'd do something dumb like get the cord to the headphones tangled with the string, or the string would catch the cord somehow when releasing and rip them off. I do shoot close to the garage and can turn the radio on in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switchback29A1 Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Lol yaull are making me sound like a safety hazzard. Really all you have to do, for right handed shooters, is tuck it in either one of ur left side pockets. cord lays tight against ur body. I was just asking because it seem's like if theres a good smoothe song on...it's easier to hold still and concentrate...just seeing if it worked for anybody else.

Swamphunter Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Ah... no, not me. I enjoy the peace and quiet when shooting myself. Plus I like listening for robinhoods.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest matt_tibbit Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Safety issues.... I've often thought about listening to my iPod while shooting sticks but have decided that it's probably not safe. My worry is that my kids or neighbor kids could come running around the corner of my house at any time and I would accidentially shoot them. My kids always know when I'm out back shooting and we have a large fenced in back yard to keep the neighbor kids out. But they're always losing footballs and stuff in our backyard and climbing over to get them. Plus...I just like listening for a few things... 1. I can usually hear if I have a damaged vane or an arrow that's not fletched right and is flying a little off by listening to it's flight. 2. I love to listen to my bow's quietness. I custom made my own noise and vibration dampener (similar to the STS) and it's awesome! 3. I love the sound of the arrow making contact with my field bag.

Born4it Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Don't have an ipod, but if I did I probably wouldn't listen to it. If it works for you, that's awesome! I just like shooting, and just shooting...concentrating 100% on the target and squeezing off a smooth shot. Good luck with the music though! Take care, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
