so who says you have to shoot groups? Unless target archery is your goal why worry about groups. I shoot to mainly hunt so one good shot is all that really counts and groups mean nothing . Take your time and make one good shot at a time and most of all have fun, if you beat yourself up for every poor shot you will make it harder not easier to improve.

Take a drive over to denver. Make a 3 day weekend trip out of it and stop by rocky mountain specialty gear. Those guys are great shooting coaches and they'll straighten you out no doubt. It might be in your setup as well, I'm which case they'll once again straighten you out. It's more than worth the money in gas and hotel.
Now then, get your weapons, your quiver and your bow and go out into the open country to hunt some wild game for me.- Genesis 27:3

The important thing is your form and shot sequence. Focus on that, not hitting the target. Aiming is only one small part of the shot. If your form and sequence is right accuracy will come as a biproduct.

If it stops being fun, stop . If it hurts, stop. If you're getting frustrated , stop. Don't beat yourself up, we all have shooting issues from time to time.
Old doesn't start until you hit three figures...and then it's negotiable

Whenever I start to stray a little off, I just go back and do some blank/blind bale form practice and it's fixed !
