Well, 2 inches at 20 yards is on track with the archers Minute of Angle. 1/2 inch at 20 yards would be shooting 1/4 MOA and that's machine-like. Are we talking hunting bows or target bows? I can shoot MOA out to about 40 yards, after that it opens up some. This is with a hunting bow shooting fingers.

I'm about the same. 2" at 20 yards would be an average. I have shot a couple of 1/2" groups, but I have also shot a few 5" groups [&:].

It gets expensive for me too...Honestly I'm not an expert shot...I can hold my own but I'm consistent out to 50. And I'm usually lethal in the woods...If I was at a 3D shoot I would probably get walked on by most of you guys/girls........I would say I'm decent... but when I'm in the woods my shots are successful...I think it just comes from experience over the last 20 years when I started as just a little guy...

[:@]I do not group shoot at 20yds. Its too expensive.
I agree, at 20 yards if you can't put it in the middle...you might want to quit shooting. At 40 yards...now your talking.

mine are 1/2 inch 5 shot groups
With an arrow .3 inches in diameter, a .5" 5 shot group is IMPOSSIBLE. 5 shots, will fill 1.5" circle, even when perfectly placed. [:-]
