Default RE: Secrets to improving accuracy?!!

Assuming you are talking target here:

Get used to seeing the pin on the X. Draw hold pin on x then let down. Do this about 15 to 20 times before each practice session. This will allow you to be more comfortable with the pin being on the x and will help limit target panic.

Do not drive by shoot. You need to learn to hold the pin where it is supposed to be.

Do not used a close hand or an open hand on the bow - both induce torque and need muscle tension to achieve. Somwhere inbetween is a relaxed grip with fingers hanging naturally. get the grip onto the thumb side of your lifeline and into the meat of your thumb - not into your hand.

Avoiding back tension here - as it is to much to type - at the very least squeze off the shot. If you try to time the shot to go off when the pin is on the X - you will find yourself on a long hard road to success. If you are holding the bow steady and in the x - it should not matter when the bow goes off - just let it.
