broke my first knock tonight
« on: August 20, 2015, 10:54:00 PM »
Was only shooting at 6 yards but Ive only shot my kmag only a handful of times and its been a few yeas snice shooting trad. Should I stay at 6 yards and in grain thongs in my mind more or should I move backto 10 yards?  Trying to learn instinctive.

I'd upload a.pic of what my groups were looking like but I haven't figured out how to do that yet

You can work on form at short distances. For me, learning to shoot instinctively means shooting at all different unknown distances. I seem to  shoot better if I don't know the distance.  You are going to love your Kanati.

I break nocks all the time, but it's not because I'm shooting them with another arrow;-) Good going man!

I shoot one arrow at a time..... makes for longer shooting sessions,  but it helps me get my mind right and saves arrows!!!

God bless,

I also shoot one arrow at a time.but every arrow is from a different spot. Sometimes walk up or walk back or but most of the time mix it up but hardly ever in the same spot.
