good shooting Ding, nice 60m group, bugger about the Robin Hood. Serves you right for shooting two bad arrows in exactly the same hole.

Jim's right. Robin Hoods don't count unless they are in the ten (preferrably X).
I still haven't had one though :( (or :))
Ans are those Lightspeeds??? It's time to get some proper target arrows DWD.

I got Cartel triples and they don't group like Ding's. Are Cartel triples a bit, you know average, or am I just crap?
What target arrows would you suggest Sandy. After shooting in the wind so much here in WA been thinking some really heavy points might be the go.

NICE WORK DING ;)
Hay Jim, i shot triples and got groups the size of the 10 at 70 meters on many occasions (now if the group was in the ten that would be better ;) )
Triples should do the job. what spine are you using?

They are Cartel 300's with 110 points (I think), bow peak weight is 55lb.
They have been OK but in the wind they seem to 'drift' a little too easily.
Have FFP 187 fletches. Sounds like everything is OK, I just need to get better.

YES YOU DO!:)
There's a thread on here re "best Group ever" by Jim Park.
I think it went something like 5 X's and 1, 10' at 90m with cartel tripples. Shot at the nationals this year?
Very nice. What did you get for the canberra? Me guesses 870.
