Changed my form and got my first Robin Hood.

[ballen28115]

Long story short, a couple of TG members suggested to me that I could try altering how I set my bow arm when I draw and see if that would take my draw length down 1/2" or so.   Soooo, this morning I'm out shooting with my kids, using 42-48# bows, trying a few changes, getting some decent results.  We knock off for lunch, I get on the honey do list for a while, then at 3 I think to myself, "Hey, I haven't shot my Frederick longbow in a while, I'll try that".  I draw this bow to 56# pretty consistently.  Three shots to warm up, need a stiffer arrow.  200 grain tips on 29" 400 spine Beman ICS Hunters, shooting at the "S" in the word "Seed".  Shot at 55 feet.  Woo Hoo!

Looks like ya got it pretty tuned to me...

Funny thing is that I had these arrows listed up for sale last week and could not get a nibble on them!

You have to love it when you loose $12 at a shot.

Now you've done, you gone and ruined an arrow and I can tell by your post you'll most likely not remove the one you shot that ruined it.

That will make for a short dozen of those..lol

Congratulations!! Thanks for sharing with us.

God bless,Mudd

Hmm, looks like instead of selling those, you may need to go get some more.

ballen28115, how did you change how you set your bow arm when you draw? Just curious if it will help others. Thanks.

[DannyBows]

Cool!

[Muleyslayer]

[ballen28115]

Look at that green grass...by the way nice shot.

[Wannabe1]

Might want to change your form back, that's gonna get real expensive if you keep shooting like that!
