Hey Matabele - great to hear from you.

I am not normally as accurate as that with other bows I have had.  

That is why I like the F/F so much because it is a very inherently accurate bow.  When I shoot distances up to about 15-17 meters I short draw -only pull the bow back about half way, anchor under my eye and look striaght down the arrow shaft.  It is very accurate and you cant miss doing it this way.  Can shoot bottle tops everytime up to this distance.

The only thing, because I am only at half draw I am not getting full power from the bow.  Distances over 15 metres I anchor at full draw and gap shoot.

I am accurate at that to about 35-37 metres.

If anybody is wondering about the video which Matabele referred to - here it is:

 

 

Sutto
One hour of life, crowded to the full with glorious action .... is worth whole years of those mean observances of paltry decorum, in which men steal through existence, like sluggish waters through a marsh, without either honor or observation
