I got my third ever yesterday....mine was at 35yds and I was PISSED!!.

Now I'm down to 2 arrows & gotta go shopping.

At least it was right in front of my brother (who has never done it) and the 3rd arrow in the kill zone of his brand new 3d target, lol

Too bad about the busted arrow but I would take it! Great shot!
I have done it at 20, 30 and 40. I have not been able to group 50 that well. I will keep trying though!
Great feeling going into the season!
