Hi! Thank you for the inspiring reply!
It is a 40cm target, with a 42# Hoyt Altus. As for why low, I have some ideas. I tend towards target panic, so I think I may sometimes prematurely trigger, and I tend to come up into the target from below after I draw back. (This is the main problem I am trying to work on, not doing that reflexive panicky trigger, but triggering with intent) Also that was my first time shooting 18m, before I used to shoot 10m and a few times 15m, and I am using the same pin for all three distances, so my pin might be a little low, not sure if 3m extra will make that much difference.
Also, I noticed the longer distance really magnifies my shortcomings!! ๐โโ๏ธ
Iโll keep on shooting, thank you!
