So my bow came today. First time in my life to ever shoot a recurve. I got it all set up and started shooting at 7 yards. Started grouping ok there pretty soon so moved back to 10. I've probably got 100 shots or so in. Starting to shoot decent groups at 10, and I think that's as far as I'm going to try to shoot while I work on my form and release. I'm already helplessly addicted.

Everytime I see one I always think that Samick is a handsome bow.  Nice shooting, and Congrats!   I got back into the sport 3 months ago myself and I already have two bows...... SO ADDICTING.
Nothing clears a troubled mind like shooting a bow.

Thanks y'all. I've been shooting pretty much non stop since I got it. I'm shooting better than I expected, but not as good as I'd like. It will come with time and practice I'm sure. I stopped because I was getting tired, but I had to make myself stop!! I really want to keep shooting but don't want to develop bad habits.

One of the best down hill slopes you can get on, the addiction of shooting a traditional bow!

Congrats, Schafer

Not so much an addiction as a passion...either way welcome and enjoy!
Too many bows to list, and so many more I want to try!  Keep the wind in your face, and your broadheads sharp.
