Seems to get better each time, just a little. I haven't been shooting for long so this is a start. Maybe I will be tight enough by bow season. I want to keep all my shots at 20 or under...

Just remember when hunting to stay within your comfort zone. that's one of the fun things (well sometimes) about bowhunting. If the deer is out of range then you let them walk. Just keep practicing and if your not doing so aleady practice with all the cloths you will be hunting with including face mask.Good luck
 
Yeah sorry I only got one arrow, forgot to mention :D The holes count as the group. need to pick up more arrows soon...

The corn bag is stuffed with old mulch bags and leaned against a tree. Works perfectly.

I had a grand total of 2 new arrows at one time, shot the first one and watched it ricochet and spent a good 20+ min looking but didn't find it. I need to get a handful of them.
 
how long are your arrows? I have some carbon arrows you could have if i have any that will work. I will be in franklin next week.

Thanks, they're 31" draw length and rated for 45-60 pounds.
 
Dude, you need more arrows. Your spending more time walking than shooting. That being said, I think your on the right track!
 
I shoot a pretty short draw length. the longest arrows I have are 27.5". If the will help you out and you need some let me know and i'll get them to you. I work in franklin a couple times a week.

you're right, I am walking too much. Also I want to see a real group... should pick up more arrows within a few days.

Thanks again, I appreciate the offer. 27.5 is too short for me but thanks just the same. I got long arms, and the bow I got seemed to fit well already and shoots 31"

catman, how tall are you and what is your draw length? You have to be at least 6'3" or taller, have the wingspan of a chimp if your not, or a combination of both to be using 31" arrows? :)
