I was short drawing and not squeezing my shoulder blades together. In other words, I was pulling the string back with a high elbow and not push/pulling. Target panic was an issue as well. My eyes locked in, I drew and released way too soon because my subconscious wasn't working for me. Only my conscious thought did, which was staring at a spot. The rest was a mess. Im better now and "Reunited and it feels so good" is my fave song now.

FAW:
Jayman, I have gone through the same dilemna, at least three times in my old age. Like some have suggested herein, I always found it a matter of shooting close, 7 yards, and one shot at a time. For me I kept this up in my basement all Winter and never thought about going outside where I might have been tempted to make a longer shot. When, at seven yards I started putting two arrows inside a  cardboard roll from toilet paper, I would graduate outside and shoot anywhere from five yards to twenty using the same target picture as ingrained while shooting in the basement. This always got me back on track until I developed another bad habit which was usually during the draw and release stage. It is frustrating and most of it has to do with the ability to think positive and know that your arrow is going to go where you want it. Take heart in the knowledge that you did it once for a period of time at twenty and thirty yards and know that you will return with some perseverance to that accuracy again. Good luck.

 I know some one went through the same thing.

  If nothings change machinery It's simple we all has gone through it. We all shot better when we were younger.

  Our eyes changed. THOSE 30 YARD GROUPS GROW INTO 20 YARD GROUPS. I've have debtic pushing 30 years.  I have days I'm deadly at 20 next day I shoot 6,8 inch groups.

 Your missing out on the trill of getting close to mature bucks. Or any deer your hunting.

  I've shot 40 bucks with my selfbows the longest shot was 17 steps. MY closes was a 3 1/2, 6 point. I had 2 strokes in 06 I started hunting again in 08. I said he must have been sent by god. He followed the deer Danna I arrowed him at 3 yards.

 FOR 3 YEARS COULD'NT FEEL THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY FACE TO MUCH. I cut my arrows down to where they touched the bow. I knew I was at full draw. I still do this toady.  Kinda a clicker or sorts. SECOND ANKOR If your having target panic. Your going by feeling (touch) I've helped a few people like this.
