    Practice, practice, practice!


    12 arrows at 10 yards.


    My groups after 12 days of practicing, things are tightening up and I'm not getting fatigued as fast.

    Indeed.

    Make sure you work on technique to get consistency.

      You did ask. They were only following your instructions. Next time be a bit more careful in how you phrase your posts. If you give people a straight line like that, this is about the level of response you are bound to get. Just be glad you didn't post "Date this rifle"... Those pictures are usually very disturbing.

            I'm a little concerned that your arrows are pointing in all different directions.

            If you're shooting a recurve or a longbow, is your knock point correct?

            They should be going in relatively straight...

              It's a Samick Sage 45#, as for the arrows all cocked off, I'm shooting plastic vaned arrows that are still at 31". I haven't yet got far enough into it to start dumping money to tune arrows. I went to a store they had arrows that had the right spine weight 6 @ $29.99 bought two boxes and rolled home.

              Right now I'm just trying to find the right technique that works for me, as I progress and get into it more I'll start looking at better arrows.

                knock point is on the bow string. It's the point where you place the arrow nock.

                Slide the arrow up a half inch or down a half inch on the string and see if the arrow flight flattens out and improves.
