All shafts touching out to 30. most shafts touching, with the random one an inch out at 40. 50 and 60, within the 3" black dot on my block.

Yea right...I'd get my butt handed to me. I do well with my bow, only because I shoot alot.
I'll tell you what, though..Since I switched to a lighter arrow, my groups at longer range have suffered. Its beyon hunting range, though...Out to 40, I'm dead on.
You should get out on the 3D curcuit.

RE: How close are your groups?
I'm not in DT's league but here's my answer:
20 - too tight to shoot at same spot without messing up arrows
30 - sometimes touching but most groups are "scattered" in a 3-4" circle
40 -at this distance and beyond I can aim at same spotwithout a BIG fear ofbreaking anock or tearing a vane off. Groups areinside 4-5" circle
50 -last week I shot a 3 shot group in a3" circle, but mostof timeit's more like 6"
60 -at thisdistance my goal is to4-5 arrows in a 6" circle but more times than not Igetone or two that are1-2" outside.
70 and 80 - no pins for these distances, I use mybubble, but I'mnot accuratethis far out
BTW, I seem tobe more accurate on a 3d target than on my Rhinehart ball b/c I can see better, I guess that's how most guys are
