You know I can remember when Chuck Adams...a finger shooter with compounds...with a second generation compound bow was shooting critters out to 50-60ys with a bow...

wholly crap Controversy...he was a demon...unethical...a mad man!!!

Chuck was the first archer to complete the "Super Slam" - the taking of all 27 species of North American big game. He has also bagged 111 Pope & Young record-book trophies and 181 Safari Club International records, more than anyone else in history.
Chuck is the only bowhunter to complete five Grand Slams on American deer, and hold five Pope & Young World Records. At age 50, he is the youngest archer ever inducted into the Bowhunters Hall of Fame and SCI Bowhunters Hall of Honor.

If I was the worrying type I'd be less concerned about ABB shooting at 70 yards and more worried that he's practicing shooting with his head lights on the target. lol Just Kidding.

In all seriousness nice shooting. I'm glad to see that bow hunting looks like it will work out for you this year. I just hope I can tune my Exodus when they arrive. Your other post has me nervous. lol

I don't know , seems some negativity going on just from him posting about having some fun shooting out to 80 yards. Imagine if he posted a dead animal killed by his bow

And he wore an awesome toque!
Every time I see a toque like that I think of Chuck. It was his trademark.

Just like whenever I see a deer in the headlights from now on, I'll be thinking of ABB trying to lobb an arrow at it.

Nice shooting by the way.
