Tihs weekend Bear River archers had a great 3D shoot, Thanks again to XXX for the donated prizes. I have not shoot my target bow since the national shoot in redding, ca back in may. SO I decided to set it up for my 3d arrows and give this a go. There was around 25 shooters in the release/sights division and I took 2nd by 2 points.. I shot a 654 for the 2 days and the winner shot a 656..... Personally I am not pleased but it is what it is, the great thing about 3d is that not only do you have to shoot well, you have to estimate yardage well...... I am normally very good at that, but I must admit I was a little rusty... infact what cost me the shoot was a miss I had on the 5th target of the first day.... 10 points gone. They had 2 20 point shots, a steel bear at 34yrds and a fox surrounded by cinder blocks at 24 yrds..... both myself and my partners got those both days.... it was a fun shoot with some good up and down hill shots that made yardage tough...... most shots were in the 30-40 range with the longest being 47 yrds... I felt I shot pretty good overall, but all my 8's were yardage errors.... I had quite a few that were just out of the 10, within a inch..... even 1 yd can make a difference in this type of shoot. enjoy the pics!!!
