Go on, go for it Neil, they're addictive to say the least. I've taken the arm support off my Black Widdow now and have to say I find it slightly easier to use. Still not totally accurate but getting better. Trouble is that my kids always manage to appear as I'm practising and want a go (6 & 9 year olds) or ask why there's a catty in my pocket when I'm taking the dog for a pee. Funny how some things will always get them off the computers isn't it? Having said that, Scott, the older one is getting a good shot with the air rifle now, so long as the barrel's supported that is.
All the best,

Steve P.

I've never had one before, so I treated myself on Friday to the infamous Black Widow. Despite having archery and shooting experience, using a consistent hold and anchor point my accuracy wasn't up to much when I tried it out today (3" group at 10yds with 6 shots). Any tips appreciated lads. :wacko:

I'm sure it's just practise James. In one of the Youtube videos the guy says something about not aiming as it just happens naturally.

A mate of mine used to swear by pulling with thum and middle finger and pointing his index finger at what he was shooting at. Reckoned that you could accurately point at anything even if you're not looking at it. He was accurate with a catty. Mind ewe, he could shoot a shotty from the hip and one handed (with a lamp in the other hand) very well too. Think there's a name for people like this, smartar*e or something?
