Default RE: Anybody here this good of shot?

A few years back, I started shooting all my practice shots between 40-80 yds and then would take about 5 shotsat 20 yds. at the end of a session. Within a month I had arrows grouping like that at 60. And whoever said it above, was correct, it takes alot of time and dedication and quality practice to do it. Most dedicated archery practice I ever did and it showed big time. Last year, didn't shoot as frequently and it showed, could only shoot decent groups out to about 35-40 yds. I think most people on here would be surprised on how far they could group if they shot 6 nights a week and made every shot count(not just flingin arrows). One thing I noticed about shooting at that distance wasn't how steady you could hold the pin, but how clean my release was. To me, I think that was the most important factor.
