Been doing this a few months now and I suck. Dropped the sights and went barebow, mostly shooting at 20m. However, most of the arrows go in at the two o’clock position.
Tried shooting at 30m and 50% fell low, but for some reason inline. Also have developed the annoying habit of hitting my nose with the string a few times a session.

Okay after four days training, I decided to make archery ‘officially’ a hobby. I’ve got me bow, got me arrows, plus got a ton of other bits and pieces (not entirely sure how to use these bits yet), it’s pissing it down with rain, but I am off down the range to find out how much I have forgotton.

Points to note
Still a begineer - there are lots of things you don’t know and need to sort out:
- Get familiar with your equipments stats - riser size, limb length, draw weight, brace height, number of twists in the string, and so on. Not knowing these when you have spend a few hundred on equipment makes you look a little foolish.
- Not forgetting things like your finger tab / bracer / quiver belt
- Line up on the target - this is harder than you think when the target is 30 meters away
- Remembering proper form
** Relaxed hand on the bow
** Pushing with your bow
** Pointing with your thumb
** Anchoring correctly
** Drawing elbow high
** Don’t collapse your arms
** Don’t move your hand away from your face but follow through on release
- 30m is a long way
- Rome wasn’t built in a day and everything will take time
