i still cant..
Mechslasher:
99% of the reason behind bad shooting is inconsistency. if you have the same anchor point, grip, and release, then the arrows should hit in relatively the same area. usually when i miss, i know exactly what i did wrong. if i hit high and left, i had a weak grip. when i hit dead right, i plucked the string. to increase your accuracy, concentrate on "burning a hole" in a very small spot. you will be surprised at how soon you'll start hitting the spot.

You can't shoot good without good arrows. Period. And it takes awhile. I went through a lot of the same stuff when I started back shooting stickbows. Eventually, after thousands of arrows, I would have those moments when something "clicked" and I reached another level. I don't shoot as much as I should now, but I finally got to the point where I know how to if I can make myself do everything like I know I should. I'm still inconsistant from time to time-some days I just can't miss, and some days I couldn't hit a cow from ten feet, but the more you shoot, the better you get (as long as you're not just practicing bad form and bad habits.) When I finally learned to make good arrows, my shooting got considerably better, too.
