Practice at those longer shots makes the short ones like a slam dunk.  Keep it up, the days are getting longer so it is easier for me to get out in the yard and fling a few arrows every night.  It is really all about muscle memory so perfect practice makes perfect.  Always make sure you are shooting with good form and when you get tired...stop, you aren't doing yourself any good.  In real hunting situations the first shot is the one that is going to count, not the 25th shot 15 minutes into practice.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

I'm pretty new to the archery game so I know very little and mostly go by what the guy at Sprtsman Wrhs set's me up with. I started with the Gold Tip Expedition Hunter 500 spine but when I increased the draw weight to 60 I was getting lousy groups so I went to 400 spine in the same arrow and now things are looking good...

I'm shooting those same .400" spine expedition hunters, and like them a lot. They actually have been more accurate than my hunter XT's.
