    Hi .
    the last couple times I shot spot target I have notice that I was shooting low and to the right . If any one has any advice I will try it and see if it helps me correct my problem. Thanks xring 300

    Sounds like your site or rest might have moved. I would check to make sure they are both tight first.

    Right handed?
    If you Xing consistently and you misses are low right I would work on your follow though. Sounds like your might be dropping your bow arm just a smidgen.

    Read "The Nuts and Bolts of Archery"..
    I found it to be a great source of information.

    My first thoughts are draw length might be off. Either short or long.

    Secondly, I would guess by your scores you do not have a proper release. Learn back tension and execute it.

    Make sure you have the proper grip and address the grip properly before drawing. (Do not try to correct your grip at full draw)
