    My question is about grouping my shots

    Im grouping my shots great at 15-20 yards but im way off the group 25-30 yards. Is it possibly my stabilizer?

    You're probably not staying in the shot. A lot of people will shoot great groups at 20 yards but if they aren't staying in the shot it will become very apparent at longer distances.

    I pick a spot on the target and try to stay focused on that spot until after I hear the arrow impact. Your pin should be in your peripheral vision, but always stay focused on the spot.

          Bow tuning shows up more on longer shots. Do you see the arrow cork screwing more on longer shots?? Be sure you bow is tuned well and then aim small to miss small.

            Im shooting a Reflex Ridgeline 32, yes the bow was tuned and paper tuned. I would have to say the answer Sika gave might be my problem, I will see today at the range.

                If your bow is tuned which you say it is.... Start practicing at 40 to 50 yards. At first you will be all over the place, but it will tighten up with practice. After that when you move up to 30 yards it will look like 20 yards to you, and well be alot easier to have tighter groups. Of course remember the advice given above and work on your form.

                  I videoed myself shooting because I was having the same problem. I found I was dropping my bow arm slightly before the arrow left the bow. For some reason I did it more at long distances. I concentrated -as Sika said - on keeping my form till I heard the arrow hit the target. That did the trick.
