The bow is on!

[infoman jr.]

I shot my bow a little last night. I'm feeling pretty confident out to 40, maybe 45 on a calm, feeding deer. I just have to hang one more stand and I'll be ready. Only 2.5 weeks!


Interesting how my groups shifted.
30 yards:


40 yards:


50 yards:

Nice groups!

Assuming your getting good arrow flight and the shifting groups are a trend instead of a fluke you can make very very small adjustments left or right to the center shot to see if the groups don't shift. Try walk back tuning.

That is some good groups. I wouldn't change nothing. an inch or two aint that bad if you shoot that good.

I wouldn't change anything either . From that distance the smallest difference in grip , anchor , or release could change POI . It takes a good shooter to shoot groups like that at 50 yards . Good shooting

I tend to agree with the above. If the centershot was off the arrow grouping would likely be even further to the right than the 40yd grouping. On some fixed pin sights the pins aren't always exactly parallel on the vertical axis which could cause this. However, slight form discrepancies are more than likely the culprit�as they become magnified at longer distances. Good grouping regardless.
