Beginners luck? I don't think so. Keep shootin' you're doing something right.

I'm a huge fan of 45 to 50 yard shots. I know that is a long time for the arrow to be enroute, but I seem to be more relaxed with a lot less target panick at those ranges. I don't know if you intend to bow hunt later, but game animals get really spooky inside that invisible 45 yard perimeter. My favorite pin is my 45 yard pin.

Good luck,
KP

Awsome group. I do most of my shooting at 20 yards and do the rest out to 50 yards. It looks like if you do much practicing at 20 yards, it could cost you a bit in buying new arrows. LOL!!! Great shooting!!! I wish you the best of luck with your shooting and hunting. It looks like you are on the right track!!!

I don't ever practice past 30 yards, the reason is I have never had any need to shoot at a deer past 15 yards. I know every stand is different, but as for my setup all my kills have been at 15 yards and less. What I am trying to say is, if those are from 50 yds please don't ever let me do any betting with you, I will loose my shorts YOUR GOOD.

Ha thanks. Yes, that was at 50 yards. Can I do it again? Probably. Could I do it all day? Probably Not. I don't even have a bow right now since it broke. Bummer. As soon as my shooting came together my bow came apart.
