Title: Wish me luck!
Post by: Todd_ID on August 10, 2009, 11:27:55 PM: I need a few "Good luck" wishes tonight and Tuesday. I'm heading out Tuesday night for New York to the IBO World Championship shoot. If I shoot like I can, then I'll be really happy and hopefully make it into the top 20. I've been shooting very well the last few days, so I'm hoping for the best (as in top 5), but I still need a little support from the huntwa guys! If I end up at 100th place, thne I'll put a smiley face on and live with it, but I'm really hoping for good things; plus, I want to put WA on the top, if I can!

Post by: Todd_ID on August 25, 2009, 08:28:03 AM: Well...... I had a great time. Nerves played a big part, I think, since this was my first national shoot. I was in about 8th place after the first day, and I shot that by cleaning the "harder" course. The next day on the "easy" course I had my lunch handed to me in a nicely wrapped gift. I shot average that day while the rest shot great. I ended up in 93rd place in my class (bottom 50%), so now I've got something to shoot for next year.

The area was pretty cool; the shoot was at a ski hill in NY. The town bent over backwards accomodationg the flood of people spending money there. The people were fun to be around (except for the hangovers the following days); I had expected a ton of stuck up target pokers, but they were all hunters. There were a few people there that I knew from the NW, and I met a bunch of cool people from the east coast. I learned more about target archery in the week I was there than I could imagine. I think there were around 2500 shooters from 20 or 25 countries and every US state. I'm hoping that they have it there again next year, because I want to take my family back there with me.
