YFKI1983 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Does Torque have a big effect on accuracy when your shooting shorter distances? I guess by short I would say <30 yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josephmrtn Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Yes it wouldnt affect it as much at say 5 yards but it will affect it quite a bit at 30... i know from expereince Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PREDATE Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Your first shot is the one that counts. The rest are just for practicing your shooting form. Too much shooting in 1 session can lead to fatigue, which in turn can cause you to lose your form. If you shoot alot using bad form you can/will pick up bad habits, like dropping your bow arm or torquing the bow. If your torquing the bow alot, install a bow sling and shoot with an open hand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Bow torque upsets the flight of the arrow. Misses due to erratic flight can be quite significant even at shorter distances. Bow torque is a form (grip) problem. You need to fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiefbkt Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Torque. That's exactly what I do. I grip the bow normal during my draw cycle and then relax and gently open my hand. Worked so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
