Shooting low

[nhbuck1]

Unjust changed to a proper grip on the bow, I'm hitting the target dead center but impact of arrow is a foot low of where I'm looking, what can I do to correct this?

Sorry for the typo I meant I just changed to a proper grip

What kind of aiming system do you use?  If you shoot instinctively just give it a little time.  Your computer will figure it out and your arrows will rise toward the mark. Move up close and start.  It's just a matter of repetition and memory.

If you're a gap shooter or indirect aim, just aim higher.

I shoot instinctive, do you think the did impact is from change of my grip?

I don't know.  If you make a drastic change, you could expect a drastic result.

Kyle,
You are doing a LOT of experimenting, which is good!  BUT!  You seem to be changing many things pretty fast and NOT giving any one of the changes enough time to "settle in."

In coach's training, we are told that it takes 21 practice sessions before a habit is changed or a new technique shows benefits.  Just changing something will not give instant results, stick with it for a fair amount of time and then evaluate whether it is a good change for you.

The arrow in the target is not a measure of whether the change is good or not -- at least not in the first few practices employing the change.  Slow down.

Yes I think it will just take some time, tried 3 under don't like it, but the proper grip makes a big difference, no more torquing the bow
