Shooting Question

[nwwaterpolo11]

Something odd happened yesterday when I was shooting. After a month or so of shooting relatively close to the bullseye, all my shots were going far right to the point of completely missing the target at 25yds. Any ideas on why this happened?

If you shoot regularly and it happened suddenly, odds are something moved on you...either your rest or your pins. If you haven't shot in awhile, it may be a slight change in your shooting form that you wouldn't notice. I wouldn't move anything yet if you don't remember bumping the bow pretty good. Try just shooting at close distances for a few days and see if your form doesn't correct itself. I know if I go without shooting for a few weeks, I always have the temptation to start moving my pins around. After a couple days the arrows start finding their mark again though.

I agree with the previous post. But I would tend to lean more to something shifting/moved. At 25 yds, it would take a drastic change in shooting form. When I come to full draw even on a target out to 30 yds, I am relitively close to being aligned before I start pin point aiming. It would be relatively easy to notice if my sights moved that far off. Now a movement of the rest would be different and something I wouldn't notice.
