Is it just practice?

[u/Leather-Juggernaut30]

Been aiming for the bee in the middle today, this is one of my better sets for attention, usually what happens is that the first arrow and maybe the second is pretty far off then the rest of the set is on the bee, the first arrow in this shot is the one furthest left and the rest goes from left to right. How do you get the first shot in a set to be better? is it just practice? I know half the comments are gonna be that you can't say much without a form check and I get that, just thought I'd ask the question.

If you can get other arrow in a group, you should be able to do it with the first, assuming the the arrows are all perfect and doesn't have huge tolerance difference.
So think about why can't you. Before you shoot any arrow, think about your stance, muscle position, grip, etc. Think about everything. Get your mind settle in, eg think about shooting gold/middle, think about expansion, etc.
After the shot, think about the shot, if it go worse, why. If it's better, why. Focus on why you have done well and just repeat it
