Shooting help?
 
Background-
GMMAT and I shot a 30 target course today and I absolutely shot awful[:'(]. Just about every single shot was going off to the right and low. The only time I actually scored was when I aimed high left? I never got comfortable today, but last night I shot about 50 or so arrows at 40 yards and was grouping in the 5" range.

I felt (could be mental) as though I was dropping my front arm causing my shot to be low and left. Does this sound accurate? Maybe it was my confidence after doing bad on the first couple of targets? Anyways, below I've added a few quick pics of me drawing. Maybe someone can see something I doing wrong or give me some tips on follow through? I'm not looking to become great, but I would like to be a little more consistent. I appreciate all help. I tried to resize the pics but for some reason there huge?

It could be mental thing. I shoot pretty good by myself at my house. But whenigo to a shoot i don't do as good as i do at home. I'm not horrible but i don't go great either.

last week I didn't shoot nearly as bad but again different course longer targets etc. I guess it could have just been, one of those day's!

form looks good, might be just mental or like you say, not following thru and dropping your arm.

Thanks RISS, I just thought i would post this up for piece of mind.

Upddate- My Left Shoulder and Bicep are pretty sore and tired feeling this a.m., so I'm guessing I shot to much the last couple of days and that caused me to shoot poorly. But I welcome any comments on form or actual follow through directions.

thanks,
