Default Got my longbow

Been shooting tonight in my garage at10 yards. Sometimes my shots feel great, sometimes aweful. I am having trouble working out my form. I have shot recurves but not a longbow at 2oclock position. It just feels so strange. I think it uses different muscles. Shot about 150 arrows. Pretty wore out. But once I got into a groove, I was shooting 2" groups at 10 yards a few times, but once I thought I had it figured out, I got 8" groups. I had trouble pinching the arrows. I tried some different technices not shooting split fingered, but that didn't feel right. I need some pointers I believe.

But I feel happy about my purchase. And if I get even a doe this year, I will be so happy.
