Consistency help

By

I am having big problems with my form between shooting blank bale and at an actual target. I don't know if I would consider it target panic in the traditional sense, but many times when I am shooting at distance (18 meters or less) I "feel" like my form is just falling apart. But when I practice blank bale I feel like it is very strong. I'm confident in my alignment and use of back tension. I have a clean release and a strong follow through etc. And when I shoot at range, I hardly have any confidence in my process. And my arrows have erratic flights, tailing left and right, and are generally just all over the place. I will have times when I get to the line and I feel like the process is good and I have great results. I posted a picture a few days ago of my best group yet at 20 yards. But that kind of group is rare. Also most of the shooting I am doing is in my backyard. That is when I have the most trouble. But when I go the the archery range, I don't feel like I have these problems with my form nearly as bad. I actually shoot halfway decent at the range. But I can not make it there very often because of my work/family schedule. So idk what that is about. I know it can be hard to really diagnosis from only reading text and not seeing me shoot, but any advice would be appreciated.

TL;DR: Me no shoot good sometimes.

I would take a takedown recurve bow as my primary SHTF/bugout weapon

This is the type of opinion that is subject to change. In the near future, deteriorating political, economic, and social circumstances may result in many people having to rely on weapons to obtain food and defend themselves on a regular basis. Alternately, some people desire to leave civilization for a life of self-sufficiency in the wilderness, perhaps temporarily, and will encounter the same challenges. Generally, firearms are the preferred weapons among people who seek to prepare themselves for these events. I have owned and used a wide variety of firearms over many years and own several right now. If I had to pick one weapon to serve as a primary weapon (a full-size weapon intended to be used offensively, such as for hunting, and carried in the hand or by sling as opposed to a secondary weapon, which is complimentary, used defensively and carried on-person and possibly concealed, such as a handgun) I just might prefer my ILF recurve over any kind of rifle or shotgun. It's ad

Having Trouble Figuring out a Backstop Situation

By
When I was around thirteen, I got my first recurve bow, and every weekend I practiced really diligently. I feel like I got pretty good for a casual archer. But having to wait for the weekend and going to the same indoor range just to shoot my bow for an hour or two got boring. So as life got busier, I stopped shooting as much. Alas, this is my sad tale. Now I'm 22, I live in a new area, and got a new awesome 50# recurve bow! The only problem is, I don't have the time or the money to go to an indoor range, and I'd just run into the same problem. I feel like my backyard is big enough, I called the city and they said so long as I'm not shooting at other people's houses or if I have a large enough structure in the path of my shot, I was clear to shoot in my yard. At the moment I'm looking at shooting at the side of my garage where it's probably around 10ft wide and about as tall. I don't think I have quite 30ft of distance, maybe not even 25ft, but don'
