Shot the new bow for the first time this past Friday. At 20-25 yards I was putting 6 arrows in about a three inch group. When I moved back to 30 yards those same 6 arrows became about a 9 inch grouping. I don't have a kisser button on the string and my buddy was watching my anchor point and he said I was all over the place at the longer distance. We stopped right there. I will shoot again after I get the kisser button and see how it goes then.

Another thing you can do instead of a kisser button, if you have a peep sight installed, is touch the string to the tip of your nose. That with the peep sight can help you get your points of alignment to be consistent. Also a great help when you are up in a treestand trying to make a downward shot.

I agree with Big Holla...tip of the nose is a great reference. Nothing wrong with a kisser, but each addition reduces your speed a wee bit.

I just got a new bow this offseason. I miss the constant anchor of a kisser and am planning on adding one. I'll sacrifice a couple fps for a better shot when that big buck is in my sights.

Just got my kisser button put on. The shop also tuned the bow for me. They said it was definitely out of whack and with the kisser and the tuning I should notice a big difference. Can't wait to get it back out and shoot again.

I will also use the tip of the nose as well as the kisser. That adds another anchor point which I feel avery bit helps.

Shooting again on Friday evening. I will let you all know how it goes.

I am definitely dialed in at the shorter distances, 10 and 20 yards. All my shots at this range are nicely grouped inside of a 4" circle. I must have fired 70-80 arrows. I did go back to 30 and fire a few but I was pretty tired by this time and it was hard to stay consistent. I will do 30 and 40 yards the next time out. The bow seems to be shooting great. As long as I can stay consistent with my anchor points and do what I know I need to do I think it will be another great year!!!!!

Ditto on the touching the string on your nose, I also make sure my draw hand touches the same place on my ear when at full draw, just do the same thing every time, nice setup, good luck.
