Just ordered a Hoyt Gamemaster,any suggestions??

I haven't shot one, but I reckon there are folks that like them. What do you need suggestions on? Arrows? Books? Broadheads?

For now, all I can suggest is practice and have fun.

I would like to find some books.My shop is going to help me out with most of it,but i would like to read more about it.

Give us a reveiw on it later. I was wondering how the handle would feel and how smooth they shoot ?

Looking for books on the that bow or books in general?

recurver i shot the bow about 15 times and love it.The grip feels real nice and shot wonderfully, can't wait to get it and play with it

Double Creek i am looking for books in general on trad hunting and shooting.Well i mean lots of shooting and then some hunting

My favorite is Byron Ferguson's "Become the Arrow". It's easy to read, easy to follow, and to the point. I don't agree with the part about wood arrows, but otherwise it's a good read and should get you started on the right foot. A good video is Ricky Welch's Instinctive Shooting Volume II. You can't follow both word-for-word, because they have completely different styles. Just use what works for you.

I'll also second Byron's book and video.

I third Ferguson's book. Be aware though that he writes about shooting longbows. Everything is pretty much same/same between recurves and longbows except one important point. Most longbows are shot with a low wrist grip but most recurves should be shot with a high wrist, or at least neutral wrist. You want all, or at least most of, your grip pressure to be right in the throat of the grip when shooting recurves so the limbs react evenly.

Much depends on the individual bow's tiller thoug. But it's not trial and error. The bow will tell you how high or low it wants to be gripped. If you leave your grip really loose and slowly draw the bow, you can feel where the bow wants you to apply pressure with your grip. That little trick works equally well on both longbows and recurves.
