Title: Strange arrow flight.
Post by: VA Elite on February 23, 2015, 06:28:00 PM
My first several shots were fine. Arrow flew well to the target. About midway through my practice I noticed my arrows would go hard left it seemed just before it hit the target. It was very noticeable. I don't know if that has anything to do with form or grip of the string. Brace was set at 7.5 like bowyer said. Never seen it do this before. It almost looked like the arrow did a loop d loop about 1-2 ft before the target. Anyone have any ideas? Weak spine? just bad form? Strange that it would happen after several great shot sequences. I don't recall changing of anchor, but that could be.

outside. But the funny thing is, the wind was blowing from the left. I figured it would push it right? oddly, they would still hit where I was aiming most times.

the wind pushes the tail to the right if it's a left wind, the point wants to go left because the tail is what steers it.
