    well I recently bought a hoyt charger with the equipment package, first new bow I have ever bought.
    well I wasn't really happy with the whisker bisquit so added a trophy ridge revolution fall away rest ( really a twist away I guess). that led to my other arrows being a tad short so went from carbon express 6075 arrows to Easton axis arrows. after reading a few threads on here I drilled out my peep sight until it matched the outer diameter of my sight at full draw.

    went from 3-4 inch groups to not being able to shoot more than one arrow at a target on my buckshot target due to them hitting each other.
    I am sure that some of it has to do with me shooting at least a few rounds every night but wow I am amazed in the difference just a few changes can make.

    this is pretty cool that all this information is available to new guys like me at just the cost of using the search feature on this forum.

    so here is a big thanks guys for sharing your experiences

    Accuracy is consistency. Right equipment with matching parts (meaning size, spine and all) can make a huge difference. You said it's your first new bow. Probably fits you much better. That helps to. The biggest thing is confidence. You are now confident in your equipment which leads to a more confident better archer. It's a combination. Feels great to shoot that well doesn't it.

    its been a blast now I just need to find somewhere other than my yard to shoot so I can shoot further than 30 yards.
    (just to clarify in my first post when I say my arrows are hitting I am not talking about hitting a nock I mean the front part of the shafts are touching just a cheap *** at heart and don't want to mess up a 12$ arrow if I can help it lol)
