Okay here is a some new angles to my shooting.  I have two arrows that I need to fix, and three that are shooting straight.

dont try to hold your pin on the dot. focus on the dot and let the pin "float" around it. ;)

Amen to this.  Trying to "hold" your pin is the first step to punching the trigger, and an eventual case of target panic where you mentally cannot properly execute a proper shot sequence.

Groups look good.  Have you numbered your arrows to pick out any flyers?  If so, try changing the nock on the flyer arrows.

I forgot to number them :bash:  I will do that and give it another shot tomorrow.  I know my black arrows are very sporadic in flight now.  I have been focusing on the pin, and its a tough habit to break, hopefully tomorrow I see some improvment.

Are the arrows all spined the same?  Same length?  Have you done any tuning on your bow yet, i.e. bareshaft tuning or walk back tuning?

JLS, not sure what the tuning means, but only three of the arrows are the same, and I plan to buy  3 more next pay day.

Seth,

Tuning just means that your arrow is coming off of your bow as straight as possible.  If you are underspined (arrow not stiff enough) it will "whip" or flex in the air and your accuracy will suffer.

yep that was done over at the shop where I dropped my bow off.  They had me zero my bow in before I left.
