    I figured something out

    I was out shooting and really concentrating on a spot with one arrow. It seemed no matter how hard I concentrated, the arrow did not consistently go where I wanted it to go. I tried looking down the arrow "straighter" by moving my anchor point in a little tighter, inclining my head a little more, and moving my bow arm slightly to the right. All of a sudden, the arrows were going where I was looking. I still had a flyer now and then, but I knew it was a flyer before the arrow hit. Practice practice practice...form form form....consistency consistency consistency!

    Nice shooting... now the hard part is to work on it till it becomes an automatic part of your shooting.

        Nice group and sounds like you have overcome another of the many milestones of trad shooting.

                Good job, Dave.
                It's cool when it starts to click, eh?

                  Form is everything until it's learned. Then it becomes a matter of summoning concentration at will.

                    Good shooting, there will be days when you can't hit a thing you aim at. When that happens to me it normally takes a few arrows to realize that I am drawing longer than normal. When I get my draw back to where it is supposed to be I do pretty good.
                    Keep that in mind if you struggle one day
