How far are you shooting through the blind before you notice a difference? Is it the short, turkey ranges 10-15yds, or the longer ones?

I have shoot thru the mesh a lot and did not see any huge difference in POI out to 30+ yards. It is hard to judge distance out of a blind and I think that it alters your depth perception to a degree. Total different ballgame shooting thru the mesh.

Also, sitting down in a chair and shooting your bow is more taxing and you dont have your entire body muscles to hold the pins as steady....Maybe you are a little off on your anchor when sitting down at full draw? How much high are you missing?

Took me some time and practice to get the hang of it

Hey bud is their any chance that you are shooting open on inpact broadheads ? Try shooting exactly the same shot the same posture ,chair whatever without the screen and then with the screen . Good luck !

DaddyPaul,

I did end up swithching to the Cabela's arrows per your input a few months back. I am shooting the Stalker Xtreme's 65/80. I also switched to the Muzzy 3 blades 100's and Blazer veins. This seems to be a good combo for my bow.
Thanks for the input.
Housefull
