first try at 30 yards

[Ron]

Thats some good shooting there, keep it up and you'll be a pro in no time.

[Texanhunter]

Looks like you're all sighted in

I recommend shooting @ a smaller target. Use an adhesive dot or a plastic roofing tack. At 20-30 yds that 3" black dot on your bag target is pretty big. The smaller dot will give you better feedback on your form and make you more consistent.

Not a bad group, but you will tighten them up with a smaller target.

I can't tell the size of re group but the tighter the better once your shooting at the real thing that circle might be wider, on good days I go for a 2 inch group at 30

A very respectable 30 yd group. That will put a whitetail in the dirt no problem.

Good group. As said you may want to start shooting one arrow per spot before you start having to replace damaged arrows. Would suggest you not shoot till muscles get tired, good way to train bad habits into your program. Figure out how many shots you make before you start to “feel it” half this number and only shoot that many. After a few weeks add a few more shots to it. Most bad form habits are picked up when trying to shoot after your body said slow down or stop.

yep, I should have known that from my days as an athletic trainer in college...I will definitely apply that piece of wisdom next time, so thanks a bunch for the great advice!

Nice shooting. Make sure your broadheads shoot the same.

[12thman]

looks good. you should be ready to go next week.

[chris1911]

you might wanna start shooting at different dots! those arrows are not cheap and with groups like that its only a matter of time before you r down to 11 then 10 then 9 and so on.......

Nicely done! What bow do you shoot?

[Speedgoat]

Pretty good!!

[treestandjunky]

That dog will hunt right there!

I'm shooting an '02 PSE The Beast that I got from a friend who had never shot it. It's been sitting under a bed for about 7 years!

Gonna switch out the strings next week, though, at the suggestion of two different bow shops.

It has a Trophy Ridge Matrix 5-pin and a Trophy Ridge Drop Zone.

Pulling 70#, 31" draw with a 425 grain Gold Tip Velocity XT. It's shooting at 253 FPS, which I was told is plenty enough to get the job done.

Looking good
