Sounds like a great way to start with the accuracy.Don't worry about the "non traditional arrows", as most people couldn't really care or even have the right to dictate to you what traditional is.

Start at ten yards and and only move back when everyone of your arrows can hit a 4 inch circle.
Move back five yards and do it all over again and keep your maximum distance to around 30 yards.

Eventually what you will experience is the natural ability of your on-board computer(brain) to pick up the sight picture at any distance and just put your hand and arm where it needs to go.

Just like throwing a baseball you will learn where to rise your arm to reach that distance.

Also keep both eyes open and don't use the arrow for a sight and you will begin to pick it up better.You need both eyes open to get better depth perception.

Shooting traditionally with no sights is a hard thing to learn and pick up and can be frustrating and will make people quite pretty fast.Keep up the practice and you will get it eventually,and when it does come on, you will need to practice more regularly than other archers with sights to "keep your eye".

hope this helps
