Jeff, Im sure that none of us are claiming to shoot 1/2" groups all the time, everytime, its just not possible.

My average size groups from 20 yards are about 1"-2.5" on a good day depending on an endless number of factors.

As for shooting a perfect round, it definatly isn't easy to shoot 60 perfect arrows and I know that I can't do it. Shoot, I'm lucky to get a couple 25 5-X ends on a 5spot face.

Guys.......shoot you a vegas round or a 5 spot round and post up your scores.

If you can shoot 1/2" groups at 20yds you'll shoot perfect scores with perfect x scores and you'd win every archery spot tournament you ever entered.

Food for thought.
This is a good point. Shooting a 1/2" group for 3 arrows is very good. Holding that consistency over 15 or 20 ends is where you really show your stuff.

But Jeff's got a point... I think we've all had groups where all three of our shafts were touching. Those are probably our "best" groups.

What do my groups USUALLY look like? About two inches between farthest arrows in the group. Maybe an inch to inch anda half a fair amount of time...

Again, out of a 20yd group? ON AVERAGE AND NOT JUST ONCE IN A LIFE TIME....I do not do it anymore. Costs too much.

So does everyone. Haven't you learned by now that some people just like posting "unanswerable" questions?

I guess I have a mental block! I can group 1"-2.5" time to time at different ranges but something keeps me from the X! When I am grouping I just can't bring myself to holding steady on the 10 ring,think it goes back to the sound of the splitting shaft on my one Robin Hood.But if I pull one bad one I can't regroup and get my head back on the game.I have lots of group holes in target but the bullseye's are great shape!

I think this helped cause part of my mental block! This way before pin adjustment.
