Today was a day for records. First off I shot at 50 yards. Now seeing as my groups have been pretty bad due to lack of practice, I was slightly worried about hitting the target at that range. Turns out I wasn't too far off. I definitely had arrows all over the target, but I didn't miss. Fortunately out here I won't be making any hail mary shots as there are very few places where I would even have the opportunity to take a 50 yard or longer shot.
For the second record I let loose over 80 arrows today. It was a good experience and I could definitely feel it in my arms. I thought I had long days before, but shooting to exhaustion was good for my arms and my aim. At that point you are just going off of fundamentals and nothing else matters.
A good day of practice. The only other issue that I'm finding is that now I've shot so much, the arrows punch through the target in places where there are a lot of holes. There is still a good amount of target left, so I should be okay for this season. Although I still have to broad head tune the bow, so it will definitely be done after that. Hunting season is not far away.
Thanks for reading.
