Default Lost/Broken Arrows

Since Kurt also tied me for the most lost/broken, and I refuse to claim my own prize, I will EMT Hydro $25 and he can add it to the gift card he is getting to make it worth while.

Thanks for the fun everyone.

Hydro,

I will PM you on Wednesday when I am back in town

Outstanding shooting. I enjoyed following this thread. It would be great if it resurrected annually. It inspired me to try 70 yards for the first time too. Top of my bubble level was bang on. Can't wait to try some more

Yes, for sure. Great to hear it got people out shooting further.

Neil, good to hear.

I too have never shot past 25 yards for target because I don't take
a shot hunting any further that 20 yards but....

This winter time long range shooting helped push me past my
self imposed limits on out to 40 yards at target.

On a regular target shoot.

Not great but I did ok.

It was fun.
It put the fun back into shooting target.
I thank you all for that.
Gives me back the confidence at 20 like I was 10 years younger.
Thank you all. Trust me I will be shooting target until Oct. and I'll be
ready.

Sept. 30th would be a good time for an egg shoot.
Yup. Like part of a fall harvest.

I'd like to pass a big thanks along to Hydro1, Brenden's Dad, and everyone who posted and participated in this thread, it was a lot of fun.

I'm going to try and come up with another competition to get us out and test our skills for a gift card prize. I've got a few ideas but I'm up for suggestions too.

I have the hunting bow all tuned and here is 110yard group....about as much adjustment I have in my sight before I get fletching contact. Just under 8 inches.

That's some crazy good shooting there LC. For the life of me, I just can't figure out why you wear that release on the wrong wrist
