How much will shooting from my stand change my accuracy?

    Grabbed one of my dads older stands and set it out back yesterday, good thing too I sit about 15 foot up and I woulda missed high had I not tested this out..... grouping still needs work but hey I've only owned a bow for a little over a 10 days.....getting more accurate with each practice.... bow is super nice. relaxing at full draw seems to be my main issue, I punch the trigger gotta slow down some........ this is so much better than my shotgun... Wish the range was open today....gotta get sighted for further distance im bored of 20yrds lol:lmao:

    20 yards is a good distance to practice form and build confidence. And it's just the beginning, it's a fun ride :)

    Bend at the waist. Practice drawing as if you are going to shoot on flat ground then bend using your waist and try not to break form. Your POI will be close to if not the same. It will get easier and more natural the more you do it.
