Topic: My first archery range experience, and I have a few questions.
I shot about 4 hours today at a local archery range. It was a lot of fun.
1 missing arrows and 3 broken fletches arrows.
Here are little information of my bow and arrows.
Kaya ktb 30#
Easton xx75 aluminum shaft with 4" right helical fletches and 100g field ponit.
I am a right hand shooter, and using a thumb ring.
When I shoot, I can heard the fletches touched the bow. I noticed that the leather right above the handle ripped little bit. What am I doing wrong? What caused the fletches ripped the leather?
I also noticed that the fletch touched my bow arom thumb, but its not always. Sometimes it touched, sometimes didn't. I had to use a band aid to protect my thumb.
I did not have this problems with 3" short vanes, but with 4" feathers .
Any advice on this?
Thank you.
