Good Question and good luck. There are alot of variables. Nock placement, rest placement, limb placement and quite a few more. A good bow shop could help you/ I got alot of imformation from the local library and the folks who work at Sports Authority. Some of the things that effected me also were the lack of a cable guard.Shooting the wrong sized arrows. I have also switched to carbons and have seen great gains.

God bless,
Chuck

I am always surprised that nobody ever says "Join a local archery club". It's always "go to the pro shop". Ok, that works, but joiun a club and learn to make some new friends and shooting partners. Usually there are others there that have more knowledge and experience that would be glad to help you out. And 99% of the time it's all free, while you're having a good time.

And if you want the best help then look up some of the better target shooters.
