Two days into shooting and would like some advice

Howdy folks, just bought a 50# recurve bow and I'm having a ton of fun with it, I also have an old 25# composite bow that I recieved as an xmas gift years and years back that ive finally started using as well. I'm a pretty large guy and I train powerlifting so I bought what I thought would be an okay starting weight, but now that I've shot it for a couple hours it definitely seems that I was a little ambitious, with no real idea what I'm doing I'm wondering if my poor accuracy is from being brand new, or the heavy draw weight, or apparently I have draw the arrow with my left hand because my brain is trash and decided to have cross dominance with my hands and eyes, or most likely a combination of all three?

TLDR; Brand new and will take any advice, but mostly wondering on ways to improve accuracy, currently in my back yard im set up about 20+ feet from a 2x3 foot target and I land about 90% of the shots but with zero consistency. Thanks in advanced for any tips :)

Shibuya vs Axcel vs other top end sights?

So my budget has increased and i decided i'm going for a top-level sight for the target style recurve i'm building.

If there's any other top end sights you think are better, let me know. I want this to be the first and last sight that i ever buy, and price doesn't really matter. Another question, on the Shibuya there's an option for "Single mount" and "Double mount." What do those mean? And lastly, is the sight aperture on either of the sights suitable, or is there better after-market apertures that are better? I'm sort of thinking that is something I should be buying from my local shop so i can actually te...

Are my new arrows overspined?

Are 400 spine, 27" arrows overspined for 30 pound draw weight? The guy just picked the arrows, cut them and gave them to me. my old arrows were 500 spine, 32" so when I said that they looked overspined, he just shrugged and said "the chart says they're ok". Can anyone confirm my doubts? submitted by /u/Astaziel [link] [comments] from newest submissions : Archery https://ift.tt/3pmjVLf via
