Practice judging more yardage. [8D]

99% of even pros in 3D will not execute perfect shots all the time, but they do know the yardage numbers due to practicing judging yardage and that only. Spend as much time learning to pick the right numbers as you do shooting and you will see a true benefit there.

According to OnTarget2's simulation tab, an Allegiance at 260fps picking 33 yards on a 30 yard target will keep you well in the 10 ring anyhow on a bedded McKenzie buck at just a hair over 2.0" high. At 280fps, you are 1.68" high, there are VERY few shooters out there capable of seeing a 1/4" difference at 30-33 yards from arrow to arrow. A new bow is a cool toy and if you want one..........get it, but don't fool yourself into thinking it will improve your game unless you honestly feel you are shooting VERY strong shots and picking the right numbers.

I used to be a speed freak on my 3D bows. Last year the ASA brought a state championship shoot to my hometown and I decided to shoot, and had to slow my bow down 32 fps to compete. I honestly shot the highest scores in my life when I slowed it down. I took the time to learn the yardage because I was worried that losing the speed would affect my scores, so I worked on picking the right numbers and learning yardage and that is what improved my game.
