Default RE: Group size?

With the amount of people on the internet, I have no doubts that there are a bunch of people who can shoot archery MOA or better, out to 100 yards, and some of them are floating around this and other boards. However......

Keep in mind, that Atlantic City is coming up, one of the biggest target shoots around. It is shot INDOORS so no wind, consistent lighting etc, the "10" ring is roughly 4-5 inches and is shot out to 60M. This puts it INSIDE a MOA shooting (60M is roughly 66 yards). Nobody has ever shot both days clean, I think a clean 1 day has been done 3-4 times. This is the top target shooters in the country/world.

I am also sure that most here, myself included, can and do shoot 3-4 inch groups at 50+ yards, ON OCCASSION. Heck I just stacked 4 arrows at 50 all close to touching, I was so proud of myself I took a picture of it!! Can I do that often, heck NO. But it sure if fun bragging about it!

One way to shoot tighter groups, at least for me, is to aim at a smaller dot.
