Title: Consistently Going Right
Post by: T-D on February 27, 2013, 06:09:00 PM
It doesn't matter what arrow or bow I shoot I have always had this problem. Currently I am shooting the Two Tracks Echo (Hill Style Bow).  My arrow flight is good but at 20 yards the arrow impact is 4-6" right from the spot that I am looking at. What is the deal?

My setup:
LH 57@28"
GT Trad 1535 - 27 7/8" 200 gr points

Your right is our left, which is the most common way a RH shooter misses. If you are getting good groups, then it is an equipment problem, which you can get some opinions on over in PowWow.  If you are not getting good groups, then it could be any of a number of form problems (and could also be equipment problems) which we can discuss here, and probably help you better if you post a video.  But there's no point in getting into that until we know how you're shooting. So how are your groups?

BTW, I always shoot to the left with a Hill type bow, just because most of the time I'm shooting with a bow that's cut past center, and I would have to spend a long time shooting a Hill bow before my feeble mind made the adjustment.

have you tried modifying your anchor so your nock is horizontally closer to your nose? such as by anchoring on your tooth instead of on your cheek.

your point / sight picture will look the same, but this change will fool your brain and send your arrows left compared to where they impact at present.
