Default Can't get my new Patriot to group

These are a group that I shot this morning at 20 and 30 yards. I only use one sight pin and from the looks of it, I'll be fine at least to between 33-35 yards. These arrows weigh 409 grains and are shooting at 299 fps.

Yeah Aussie, I've already got a fletching job ahead of me. It basically destroyed my feathers, but they will still shoot. That's why I love feathers.

Only problem is they make a wee bit of noise now. [8D]

I'd have to quit if I shot like that to ,it must be the bow's fault.

I'd have to adjust that centershot.[] Way too wide side to side.

I wish mine wouldn't group like that, I've only got about 100 shots through it in my basement and I've already wrecked 3 arrows, one thing I did notice is that some of my arrows are a bear to pull from my bag target, I think they're melting the material inside. I shot some last night after work and left them until this a.m. and they pulled right out. Go figure.

What's the problem? [ When I shoot I have to back up 28" every shot to maintain 20 yards. I shoot a robin hood then back up. The same thing happens till I get my arrows. LOL

Whew, that looks great.
