just wondering how many practice at 40 yards and what kinda groups you shoot at 40 yards?
I was out today and shot some at 40 yards trying to get my 40 yard pin set up but it was a little hard in the wind and so cold my fingers was numb LOL I was a little let down in my group as I had 2 fliers that went high but I think it was my fault..I would say my group (don't laugh LOL) was about 7 inch and all my arrows where inside the scoreable rings on the 3D buck

I don't practice at 40 yds - usually 15-30. I figure and average pattern at 40 would be about 8" on an average day

I am just curious anyways to see if I am average shooter plus I figure if I can tighten longer range groups my close ones should become easier

No joke..but 20--all fletchings touching if not im not a happy shooter, 30 pretty close to touching and 40.. on feta targets they better be in the yellow... those are just my likings.

when the wife stated shooting this winter I got her to practice shooting good form and then do more of the aiming and now she is shooting very well now ...I wonder if you make small #s on the vanes of your arrows so that you can see if its the same arrow being the flyer?

ok just wondering as alum can get bent easy... I would say Archery talk and search form and how grip the bow...thats what I did and it helped me ALOT and I feel I have a consistent form now...now if I have a flier I know it soon as I release it

I always shoot the same three arrows for 3-D shoots and sighting in with. One with pink,black and yellow highlighter/marker on the cock fletch so if ones a flyer which none have been yet I know what one it is.
