The sun’s angle changes the path length through the leaf canopy, so the light gets more filtered at low angles, which can dim the target and shift the perceived depth. That means if you’re shooting through a tree at sunrise, the target might look slightly skewed and you’ll have to compensate for the extra glare and the way the light scatters—so aim a bit higher to counteract the subtle lift the leaves give the beam.

I’m glad it helps. Just remember, the forest is as patient with you as you are with it—measure, adjust, repeat.

That rhythm will keep your shots steady, and the trees will remind you that even a tiny shift in light can nudge your trajectory. Stay observant, adjust slowly, and your arrows will sing in sync with the forest.

You’re welcome. Keep listening to that quiet beat, and your arrows will find their true path.
