Title: First Robin Hood
Post by: 59Alaskan on June 01, 2013, 07:16:00 AM

I usually don't shoot groups.  When I practice I usually only use one arrow and shoot from a different spot each shot.

I switched to the light limbs on my Bobcat this AM for the summer and decided to get dialed in with a group at 15 yards.

I think I may need to mess with the strike plate to move the grouping over the the right, but not too bad on consistency!

Not a terrible way to lose arrows!

Good for you, congrats. If your arrows are shooting good you might try just bringing your brace hight up a little at a time until they shoot where you want.

According to Byron Ferguson, if the first arrow (the one that gets split) isn't in the bullseye its called an accident.

Good shooting!  I did it a while ago, too.  At first I laughed and thought how cool it was.  Then I realized I ruined two good arrows.  Hang it on the wall.
