nothing will make you a better shot than practice and getting to know your equipment and how it functions.

looks to me that you may be flinching when you shoot
do you know what blind bail shooting is?

get right up to your target draw aim close your eyes dont think about anything then release the arrow keep thearm in position but let the bow fall forward on release of the arrow. If you dont have a wrist sling get one you need one.

do a search on blind bail shooting here you will find out what the benefits are using this technique

I hope that is not your bed behind that target. I learned a long time ago that target panic and shooting in the house don't mix very well.

i guess u can call it a bed cuz that couch turns into one but i like it there just for saftey reasons that way if something does happen it wil just hit the couch and not into the wall behind it

There can be many reasons that you are not shooting tight groups- I honestly dont like shooting groups for the simple fact that arrows are expensive. But to each his own-

My suggestions are for you to: work on your form some more- make sure that you put your finger on your release and squeeze the trigger instead of punching it- make sure thatthe outside of yourpeep sight lines up with the outside of your sight- shoot shoot shoot..
