<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote<font size=1 face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>I would guess that because your errant shots are not consistant in one direction or the other, it points even more to a less than perfect release or form. <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' size=2 id=quote>


I don't agree. Errors in form tend to be repeated time and time again especially under pressure of a tough shot on a 3D course or on the buck of a lifetime......people are habitual, like a guy that slices on the golf course every time he tries to hit the ball a mile.

I just don't see how I could possibly throw darts arrow after arrow, day after day, month after month and all the sudden I have form so bad that some shots miss the entire target?? Maybe it is just me but I tend to look for what is different first as the most likely cause of the change in performance.......doesn't that seem more logical??? I changed something on my arrow setup and everything else remained the same......after the change, problems start......eliminate the change(put field tips back on) and problem goes away. It seems pretty straight forward to me.



<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>I have always shot either Muzzy or Thunderhead, and I notice with myself that if I jerk the trigger or torque the bow even slightly while shooting my broadheads, the amount the shot will be off is double or triple that if I were shooting field tips. <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' size=2 id=quote>


And you are OK with that??? So if your groups are 3&quot; at 30 yards(pretty darn good in my book) and you have a micro flaw on release you may hit as much as 9&quot; from your point of aim??? That is not acceptable to me at all. 9&quot; could be the difference in a kill or miss or even worse a crippling wound. I demand more from my equipment then that.



<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>Have you marked the arrows when you get a flyer to see if it happens to be the same one or two arrows doing it? I had a similar problem last year and ended up taking a marker with me, and every time an arrow didn't group with the others (and I felt I had a good release) I would put a mark on the arrow. Might be worth a try.<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' size=2 id=quote>



With all due respect Indy.......I really do think you are trying to help and have been very polite and I appreciate your input. Your above comment makes me think that you haven't read the thread before commenting.

I have done what you recommend above along with many other things as well to try and fix this situation.

Again, no disrespect intended. It is clear your comments had nothing but good intentions.

Just trying to save you some time <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
