I'm trying to get really proficient with my recurves because I really want to hunt with them some day. Hopefully next season.
I have a Samick Sage with 30# & 40# limbs. I also have Martin X200 50#. Been spending a lot of time shooting the past month. Started with the 30# limbs then went up to the 40#. I thought I was getting pretty good and took out the 50# a couple days ago. Only shot a couple times but i was accurate. Tried the 50 again today and I'm all over the place. I get a little shaky after holding the 50 at full draw for a few seconds. Maybe it's still a little too heavy for me to shoot well.
However even with the 40# Sage I have a lot of trouble being consistently accurate. Sometimes the arrow flies right where I'm looking and that's really fun. But still, sometimes it doesn't go where I want it to and I'm not sure why.
I think part of my problem is plucking the string. Even when I try to focus on a smooth release I end up plucking the string. I'm sure I have other form issues but I think right now this is the worst of them. Any suggestions on improving my release?
