Hi all - what is a reasonable group for say 6 arrows at 20 yards using an unsighted bow?
I'm not talking about podium winning accuracy - I mean what would you consider "acceptable" for a moderately practiced individual?
I'm certainly still in the novice stage - so 6 x arrows on a good group is around 6", and more consistently 8". I think I'd be happy to get it down to say 3", maybe 2" for 6 arrows with practice.
I don't have the natural ability or practice time to get it down to under 1".
This is as much as consistency, as it is about overall accuracy which is why i mention 6 arrows. My 3 arrow groups (usually the first 3) are in the 2"-3" range.
