    I need a challenge

    I can only shoot to up to 10 yards right now and I have been getting groups like this each time.
    How can I get more of a challenge at this distance?
    Thanks

      I have only taken two shots at that target today. The other shots that you can see were at 20 & 30 yards.

        Shoot with both eyes closed

        Actually I would practice sitting down, kneeling, all kinds of positions to practice from to help you get ready for a real world hunt......

              Okay then make it a game and shoot one arrow at each target 10 times for a total of 40 shots... the goal being not to miss the small X ring at all... keep score and see if you can shoot 3 clean games in a row without missing.. do one game a night..

                  I have a suggestion from when I first started getting this good at 10 yards. Me and a friend of mine would just walk to all kinds of different spots in the yard with NO rangefinder and use our experience of yardage to determine what pin to shoot with. Using different angles and yardage this was a challenge for a long time and now it really helps when you have a short amount of time in an actual hunt to make a good shot with the correct yardage and you dont have time to range it or the deer is in high alert and movement is crucial. Plus it is just plain fun with a friend or alone.

                      You're welcome, it's a drill I use with the archers I coach... Give yourself a reward when you can shoot 3 clean games in a row...

                        My buddies and I would do a variation of guess the yardage. The shooter would close their eyes and the other person adjust the yardage of the target. The shooter would then have a time limit to guess the yardage aim and shoot. Got real good at range estimation and quick accurate shooting.

                            I don't get it? The only yardage you're comfortable at is 10 yds?

                              Look at the two arrows in the center of the target. Not the holes.
