C3 is correct when he says it is a mental way of thinking. blind bale shooting is total IMHO "BS" if you ask me. It doesn't work on the root of the problem!
The root of the problem is: You are defiantly worried about pin movment. You are so focused on score outcome you have actually learned you have to punch the trigger to hit in the middle. This is absolutely false. Someone else also recommended you need to focus on your sight instead of your target "Wrong!" guns and pistols are totally different animals when it comes to aiming. I would relate archery more to baseball you don't want to look at your hand when you throw the ball you want to focus on the mitt and throw the ball in the mitt.
I have seen kids and adults not be able to even aim with an arrow and hold it there. No matter how many times they try while im saying just aim and dont fire they fire. they cant help it!
So what is the answer and the best answer you ask.
You need to pick up a different style of release. A back tension release is probably the best release because you can set it so you can aim while holding it with your back and if it is set properly it wont go off. This allows you to aim without shooting. You do this at close distance like 5 yards. You do this with a big target so you can see you pin float in the middle and your mind is not afraid of hitting the middle. After you have practiced aiming you have someone slowly set your release so it goes off. you want to learn to shoot this release without moving your hand to get it to go off. You want it to become a subconscious release.
After you have started getting to know how to shoot this style of release you can move it back to 10 yards but still shoot at a big dot. Let your mind see you can hit it. once you can hit it over and over move it back to 15 then to 20. It takes time but you will be glad you did. After you have fully taken a few weeks to do this you can then go back to your old release and you will know how to hold the bows weight in your back you will also know you can see your pin float and it will hit in the middle if you are looking at the middle.
another thing you need to do is create a shot routine you simple cannot pick up a bow and point it at the target and shoot it you will more then likely end up with target panic. You need your conscious mind to be doing something all the time. A shot routine could be feet, hips, bow hand placement, draw above the target and come down on to the target, pause, aim, release safety if you have one aim, aim, release, follow through, finish and possible evaluate how the shot felt. I try and forget the bad shots and only focus on the good shots. I want to mimic only the good shots.
If anyone in the salt lake city area is going through target panic you can pm me and I can get you through it if you like. I have helped quite a few kids through it.
