May be the 'multiple arrow ' system works if you are shooting known distances and have the time to do this, but is it really a practical system for field shooting ? Can you imagine having to cart around a quiver divided into different arrows for all the distances (plus enough to allow for breakages in each size). You arrive at the peg, decide the distance, select the appropriate arrow and shoot it - then you find its not that distance after all and have to change to a different arrow for the next shot - why shoot traditional if you really want to be so limited as to how you shoot ? If you want to be that complicated then trad shooting is not the best section for you.
Sounds a bit like my better half ! He recently took up archery (flatbow) and decided that there must be a better way than mine to do it ( must be easy if I can be any good, as usual !) So I left him to it and he tried all the ways to aim and shoot that we all go through to start with - he wanted to put the point always on the centre, so he moved up and down his face, tried to do long and short draws to vary length, tried different arrows for different distances, after weeks of 'research' what is he doing ? Shooting 'gapstinctively' (lovely word, macbow ) like the rest of us - and just having to practise more ! Now he's getting somewhere, but still can't grasp that most of the faulty shots are due to the archer, not the bow.
Nothing beats practice. Not even having an arrow for every distance !
