new shooter needs help!

Do you tune a new Magnetec? Also, can you give me recommendations on accessories? Grouping 2" at 10yds and 4" at 20yds. I feel confident with it, but info is good. Thanx. jgang

tuning to me is basically making sure the arrow weight and field point/broadhead weight matches the bow, the draw length is proper, nocks are properly installed & squared up etc. If a new bow or your new to shooting, set the poundage low for starters, work your way up. shoot a lot. a good pro shop can help with some of this. most important, stay consistant and shoot a lot.

My groups improved when I relaxed my left hand holding the bow. Wiggle your holding hand finges make sure they are relaxed. use a wrist rope too.
Is your bow balanced? Front to back and side to side?
Just like trigger pull, how is your release??? Very important!
