Title: PERFECT ARROW FLIGHT
Post by: broll89 on June 26, 2008, 02:38:00 PM
Fianlly I am getting the arrow flight I want.  I was holding my bow arm to stright before, I tried bending it a little and now my arrow are fliying better than ever.  I have noticed that I am now grouping to the right though.  Any thoughts on why bending my bow arm would do this?

Try giving yourself some time.  Your brain learned how to put arrows where you wanted them using the straight-arm.  You may need to relearn for the alteration to your form.  There is also the possibility that you are now torqueing the bow so pay attention to that.  Posting a form video in the "Shooters Forum" (when it comes back on line) will get you a lot of responses and help.

When you bend the arm, your draw length is shorter. I would say your shafts are too weak when you draw with the straight arm. If you are that close to correct spine, a little heavier point will help.

If you are right handed grouping to the right means the arrows are weak normally. Unless they are way to stiff and are kicking back around the riser. Shawn
