Default LARGE fieldtip group

Outdoor temps got to almost 40 so I went out to start shooting my new bow.
I just got the 2003 RazorTec and had only shot it a couple times to see how it felt
and what its speed was. With the warmer weather I got to set up on a 30 yard target and started shooting. My groups were awfull. They would not stay inside
a killzone and were scattered around the target face. I set up my stand and shot through paper to see what was happening and I was getting a tear about 1/2 in. high and about 1/4 in right. This is my setup --- Bow set at 57 lbs. with string loop and peep and a QT 1000 rest, draw length 28 in. Arrows---Beman ICS hunter
500' s at 27 in. with 4in. ofset feathers and 100 grain field tips. My old bow (Hoyt
Raptor Redline) would group good enough where I could hit golf balls or tennis
balls at thirty yards without much problem. Would field tip groups be this bad
with the bow not shooting bullet holes? Any ideas?

This probably want give you much comfort, but I just bought a new Hoyt also. The couple days I had this bow I was feeling sick about my groups and the way it was shooting. However, about day 3 I starting getting better and at about day 5 and was stroking the bullseye as always. I guess you have to get used the feel of the new bow. I would stick with it a little longer.

Your form could be a little rusty from not shooting added to the fact a new bow that you have to get used too.
Keep shooting it like Belle said things will come together when you become one with the bow
