Default Practice is paying off

It has taken me a while to get to this point. Its not great but I feel good about it. This is an average 20 yd. group. I'm ready to try hog hunting now. I'll try it saturday night.
My compound has a limb problem and is in the shop for a warranty repair so I have spent more time with the recurve. That time is paying off. I wish I had done this sooner. The extra practice I mean.

Sure is! I put it down for a month or so to concentrate on 3-ds. I won't be putting it down for long again.

That's a lot better than most at 20 yds. One thing about these bows--you have to practice on a regular basis. Doesn't have to be a huge amount, just keep it regular.
