My wife had to add her two cents as well.
The old order is passing. Swiftly receding into memory are the days of strong, earnest men who followed an atavistic yearning to pit their skills against wild animals.

Looked pretty good to me.  Man thats kind of risky sticking those broadheads in your back pocket and jerking them out like that.  Might shave that right cheek.

BMOELLER, Yeah, I got fussed at about doing it too. However my personal safety wasn't the issue, cutting my pants was.   :D

How about some other angles? Looks good from this one, just sometimes a different angle shows something you can't see from broadside.

From this angle it looks like you might be gripping the bow too tightly or not "pushing" with the bow arm through the shot on the first two shots....just from the bow's reaction after the arrow leaves. Compare the bow's movement in the last shot to the 1st 2. Also can't really see from your stance but looks like it might be a lil bit open....can't confirm the "t" alignment of the torso.

When start/stopping it quickly, you can really see the concentration on your face as you release...good job.

Bottom line, are they landing where you want em to?

JC, I usually shoot several groups of four everyday. I'll go 2 or 3 days and can't miss then all of a sudden I couldn't hit a bull in the butt with a bass fiddle. But then I try really hard to pick a spot and follow through and it gets better again.    I have only been shooting with a decent bow since Dec.2nd. The consitentcy is getting better.  Do you remember the recent thread"i wish I hadn't"? Well, I wish I hadn't parked the lawnmower behind my target.
   :banghead:
 Thank you for the opinion.I'll try to get some other angles and post them.  Michael
