Doing better than me Bubba, I have a quality 10 bow and 22 MM and have fired over 200 arrows. Number hit? 1.....

Practice with an archery target? Might help to get the hang of it. (Hear there's a nice curio out of hitting bullseyes.)

Should be noted that the way your character is pointing the bow matters
If it looks like you're aiming way off the animal, it's because you are

You can't help the fact that the Camera only moves in Quarters its a horrible Camera movement XD. even with a Custom client it's still off, I just end up shooting past the animal.

Totally true ,I have 40 mm but I can't hit a bat right before me in 10 arrows,the only way to hit is to aggro the animal first, then click its portrait to aim. But,if can't snipe target without Aggro it first,what is the use of archery?

if the camera is causing you the issues, use :cam bad. It goes to a free moving camera you can go from 0 to 90 vertically and have full 360 horizontal control. If you want to get back to the aligned camera, use :cam ortho.

hit : then type cam bad and hit enter

Also if you'd read the control section in my guide you'd know that ;)
