It was a beautiful day when I got home, so I took out the bow. Yesterday there was a little too much rain and I didn't feel like shooting. But I had some great results today. Several close groups at 20 yards and I even started backing up today. I was shooting from somewhere between 25 and 30 yards and still getting pretty good groups when I had my form down and the bow performed.
The drop-away rest is still not always getting out of the way every time. So I called the pro shop about it and they were super helpful. He said they'd get me a new rest if I needed it and they'd take a look at the old one to see if it was a bad rest or what was going on with it. I also told him about the slight cam lean, but like I told him I'm still relearning everything about compound bows. And I really am not a good judge of how "bad" the cam lean is. Overall a super positive experience with the shop so far and this just reinforces my decision to buy from them and to continue dealing with them in the future.
But like I said the groups were good. Even when the rest did not rotate out of the way, I had two sets of groupings that were right on top of each other. The last of which I posted on the picture page, so go check that out. I had a few sets that were all over the target, but I think that I am progressing well for a week in. We'll see if I can't get the hardware issues figured out. Then I'll have to invest some money into getting all the fletching replaced. At that point I think I'll be getting ready to zero in my pins. It's all pretty exciting and I am really looking forward to hunting season. Even from this far out.
Thanks for reading.
