Trying to register...

Ummm question though? I use a single pin sight, since I have to adjust it at each shot, that will forever deem me in the "open unlimited class" right? What does it  mean under Hunter "no lenses, no electronics" but Unlimited "Anything goes, shoot what you bring. All target bows and accessories permitted." Is that saying rangefinders are allowed in unlimited (I don't want to bring one)? What is a "lens", like binocs? So for Hunter you can't even use binocs? ... lol so confused, sorry, novice questions.


Short answer is, yes you will have to be in an open type class (open, mbr, mbo etc if they have them).
Range finders are no go.
People who take it seriously, and have money to spend, buy sights that accept lens (magnification) kits...basically turns their sights into magnified scopes.


Edit: I suppose I should say that depending on the club you could agree to shoot your single pin in a hunter class but you would have to set it at a certain yardage and not change it.

Okay thank ya!  :tup:
Umm no, I'm not really at that level to set it at only one yardage and then try to estimate. That would be a huge disadvantage haha I'll just stick to the class I fall in, just trying to understand the lingo so I know in the future :)

All moveable sights put you in Freestyle class. Because there is no way to police a person that says he won't move it, you're still in Freestyle.
Bowhuner Freestyle is fixed pins and stab under 12" if memory serves.

not sure about the r100 but most shoots volunteer freestyle is 5 or less fixed pins.  You 7 pin shooters should be shooting freestyle.

Since this is not an WSAA State Shoot or an ASA or IBO sanctioned event they can run their own rules. IBO lifted the 5 pin rule so you can run as many as you want even if it were IBO ruled shoot. Like Sako said, if it moves you are freestyle no matter what else you have on your bow.i have buddies that run a 3 pin mover sight for hunting but when it comes to shooting 3D's they are in with the freestyle group instead of bowhunter freestyle.

Usually Capital city Archers supply the main dish like last year they supplied the smoked meats. Then all you need to do is bring a side dish you made or picked up at the store to share with everyone else who brought a side dish, it's ine big potluck that they have in their club house. Of course you do not need to take part and can stay at your camp and have your own dinner.
