    Is the cant from your hand/arm or from your body position?

    Have you checked the 2nd axis of your sight (makes the bubble level to the bow riser)?
    Have you checked your 3rd axis of your sight (if sight is so equiped) makes the housing and pins perpendicular to the riser)

    a mere guess without seeing your forrm, sometimes it is the simple things that we over look. grip the bow with the index and thumb (index is only there to keep it from going forward on release) grip should be in the joint of the thumb between it and the web.

    it will feel weird for a little while, since you have been shooting differently, I regularly shoot out to 80 yards and have pins set to 100.

        Canting is natural for the human form. Go traditional and you will be back where you belong. If you are trying to shoot those long shots at animals with the newer bows, then from my prospective you are defeating the purpose of bowhunting. Get close and shoot short. That is what bowhunting should be about.

          At 20 yards...

          1.Which arrow was shot without the bow being level and just held natural?
          2.Which arrow was shot with the bow canted?
          3.Which arrow was shot with the sight level bubble between the lines?
          Left arrow held natural,
          center arrow canted almost as much as I cant my recurve and
          the right arrow I tried to hold the bow perfectly level.

            This is your opinion...




            And once again, I'm not going to "go trad" because I'm having a canting issue. lol I enjoy longer shots when needed. I'd like to see you kill a nice buck with a trad bow in west tx with no feeders. That doesn't mean its not bow hunting. It's just different than bow hunting inside of 25 yards. Thanks

              What's the point here? Like I said, I'm dead nuts at 20. The problem is 30-40 and especially 50-60.

              Here's my 20 yard groups.
