bad shooting or bow problem
« on: April 03, 2013, 07:33:43 PM »
My daughter has been shooting her new pse everyday since febuary. She called me out and said there was a problem every time she shoots the arrow goes hard right and sloppy. She has been dead on since day one. Bow looks good lined up right so I had her open new arrows does the same thing dont know what to do any suggestions.

I would start with the rest as well. Loose or bumped? Let us know what you find out.

Any archery shop should or make your own.  Tight paper and shoot thru it.  The tear will tell you whats up.

Like everyone said check the rest, also knock on the bow with your knuckles if anything else is loose you should hear a rattle. Keep knocking till you pin point the problem.  Once you get it all figured out take some white out stuff and mark all of the settings so you know if anything moves out of alignment.  :twocents:
