Default Well, will this Git-R-Done?

This was shot at 30 yards this afternoon. I should have put a tape on it, but it's only 1 1/2" across. I was pretty happy with it. Now, when I get my form finished and stop punching the darn trigger, I'll get rid of most of my flyers and shoot like that all the time!

Well being the A type I am, I would try to move the point of impact up a hair and to the left....... but that is me and what I would do.

However, that group would definately put meat in the freezer![8D]

Funny, that's the first thing I thought of too: Move your sights a bit and you'll be spot on!

Congratulations on some great grouping though!

why would you aim at an imaginary spot and not the white square? seem a little fishy

nice shooting. somehow you've got to find a surprise release. even with a index trigger you can do it. it is nearly impossible, and impossible for me to not get in those habits when i've got a trigger. a trigger will never become un-punchable if you need to when hunting. larry showed a shooter with an index trigger to use all his fingers like a hook together, with the trigger on the meaty part of the middle joint. at full draw he had the person execute with back tension and it worked for them. if you don't know when the trigger is going off its hard to drop your bow arm or punch it.

When I practice I don't aim for the "spot" either. I aim for the corners of squares like on that target.

You would be amazed how much it will shrink your groups shooting for an exactspot rather than letting your arrow fly once your pins hit the3 inch by 3 inch spot.

Nice shooting there mo-mo!

I have found that I shoot way better while aiming at a quarter size target.

What kind of release do you use? I have been thinking about getting one with the adjustable trigger.
