Hi All,
I am a beginning recurve archer with my first bow.

I was out shooting for the fourth time last Friday - I shot about 200
arrows over 2.5 hours at the range.

I was pretty happy with my stance, bow hand, bow arm and shoulder
positions and felt my draw was smooth - both with and without using
the clicker (I warm up without the clicker).

Now, maybe this is a tuning issue or maybe just a rookie shooter
issue but my arrows rarely went 'straight' in at 30M.

Usually, the nock was pointing most often back to the left and
sometimes to the right.

I sometimes observed some obvious fish-tailing but not too often.

Perhaps with experience, I'll settle down but I was thinking it was
my release that is the problem. After a while, I took my index finger
off the string and just shot with my middle and ring fingers - which
seemed to net a straighter shot.

I use a Cavalier finger-tab without spacers.

My bow and arrows were matched by Lancaster Archery Tech Support:
60" bow, 25" Eclipse riser, 28 pound limbs, #2212 Eclipse X7 arrows.

Any thoughts and/or advice?

Thanks,

Marty
