Re: Anti-pulse slings - do they work?

Thanks Ken, you've confirmed some of my thoughts.

Nester, what order are you shooting the bulls? With shooting one shot per bull you have to be really observant to pick whether it was an error like a shoulder twitch (pushes butt forward and muzzle down to the left for a right handed shooter) or poor natural point of aim.
