I had my bow dialed in out to 50 yards. I was hitting a three inch circle every night, my routine was three shots from 20, 30, 40, 50 yards or 15, 25, 35, 45 yards five or six times a week for a few months. Tonight after shooting my normal routine I decided to shoot from 65 yards (I shoot Optix XR2 Bow Sight) after a couple of shots i was shooting about half an inch outside the 2 inch dot I was aiming at so I decided to adjust my sight (first mistake) well this made it worse so I adjusted again (second mistake) and again. Next thing I know is I am all out of alignment. I went back and shot at 20 yards and I was way off. By now I am 50-60 shots in and I am not steady, the bugs are eating me up, I am drenched form sweating and very aggravated so I gave up. Now tomorrow I will have to start over again. Should have just left it alone.
I have never shot a deer outside of 38 yards with my bow so I had no reason to do what I was doing.
