cold shot

IMG_2494.webp
First four of the morning from 25. I didn’t improve as the session went on. 😀
 
I'm mildly embarrassed to admit it, but I'm not an arrow guy, meaning I don't have dozens of arrows for each setup I own. I started shooting the Widow last year and had SIX (didn't even buy a full dozen) arrows built for that bow. I don't lose arrows, I don't break them shooting groups, and I don't do a lot of 3D shoots where I need a bunch of arrows. Yesterday I was considering buying another half dozen for the Widow but figured I should try to shoot the arrows I had built for the Stalker recurve since they were a similar build.

I don't think I can shoot the difference in them. Both arrows flew great from my bow, both field tips and broadheads. This buys me some time on buying more arrows. :LOL:
 
Been riding a bit of a heater as far as shooting goes for the last couple of weeks. I made a minor change in form and it's paid a lot of dividends when it comes to consistency. What I had been doing, best I could tell, was actually over-drawing a bit. It led to feeling like I was "fishing" for my anchor at full draw and I had some inconsistency because of it. My change was to keep my right hand tight to my face as I drew which has kept me consistently hitting the same anchor around my jaw. As a result, I'm wearing out the kill zone on the bag.
