60 yards is totally doable with todays equipment. Yeah a lot can happen but the theory is practice at 60 and 30 is a chip shot. Hand torque is over hyped imo, i have tried doing CRAZY stuff with my hand trying to get it to have MAJOR effect and can't make the effect ppl talk about.
Top things that are likely culprits,
1. Punching the release, that arrow went right where it was supposed to, but you punched/slapped the trigger and the pin wasn't where you thought it was.
2. flinching at the shot, you anticipate the release of the weight on your arm. You drop the bow, or relax your arm/shoulder. I see this issue more than any. You have to focus on following through and not expecting the shot. Think of your draw length, a little movement with that anchor hand translates to a big change in the way the arrow goes. (after further thought I shoulda put this as one, it is SOOO common, people don't catch themselves not following through) or sometimes (seen it once) the opposite, they try to "let the bow roll forward" and are actually pulling it down pre maturely. to me its looks like the flinch on the shot. Had a buddy who was bad about dropping the bow trying to watch the shot. So he would pull his head away right as he shot. Was worse when he shot luminocks...
3. Anchor point... anchor point, anchor point, doesn't really matter where it is as long as it is comfortable, as long as it is ALWAYS the same. Its like a free throw, same motion every time
The flinch can be helped with a less weight on the pull, you are less focused on, "HOLY CR@P I GOTTA SHOOT THIS THING BEFORE I BLOW UP MY ARM...
