( the one which pushes you a bit )

not much point jumping to a too far away distance and miss all the time.

I used that method untill I reach 100 yrds

I think this answer matches something which I have previously been told and that was if you average over 200 with 30 arrows consistently then its time to move up 10 yards. Which when you work it out equates red and gold. So this is something that I will concentrate on for now. Thanks for all your replies.

Are you at the Easter Bunny Calor?
