Default RE: My zero changed, but only for the first few shots???

More than likey your form isn't the same as it was before the lay off, hence the arrows aren't impacting where they were before. Probabely your anchor isn't where it was before. Happens to me when I don't shoot for awhile also.

Yep, it's form related for sure. Happens all the time. It don't take much to be off a couple inches till your muscles settle in. Just practice more often. Only takes a few arrows to keep things working right.

I agree totally with you guys. Grip and torch are the usual culprits.

Good Luck!

Several weeks off , your form is bound to change . The solution ? Shoot every day

I often find my problem when that happens is I'm not centering the pin in the peep, or my anchor is off a tad.
