It may not be much by most standards but it's the best I've done. I had to brag to someone ;D ;D ;D It's only from 16 yds but hey! I'm pumped ;D ;D ;D  Maybe I'm finally getting somewhere

Once you feel confident at 16 yards move out to 20 until you get good at that distance. But remember to go back to the closer ranges also. You can loose accuracy at closer ranges by not practicing.
 Once you feel confident, shoot from all ranges but without knowing the distances. In instinctive shooting you want your muscle memory to keep the physical aspects of shooting while your subconscious brain delivers the arrow to its target.

Nice shooting.  You might want to play with your nock point a bit.  Some of the arrows are angled up like they are not hitting straight. After you shoot those groups at 20 yards I find it helpful to shoot at random yardage.  Try to not know how far away you are.  It will help your shooting a lot.  Also shooting from 5-10 yards can get hard if you always shoot from far away.

Thats good DC, at the club a few weeks ago I was outside shooting at 25 yards had a few decent groups.   Bow shoots fine just have to make a good string.  :)
