Title: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.” Week 10 Finale Scores Posted.
Post by: evgb127 on March 19, 2020, 11:09:54 AM: A couple years back the Gang participated in an honors system “virtual” shoot. Anyone else remember that? With all the social distancing going on right now, a virtual shoot is starting to sound pretty nice.

Post by: Wudstix on March 19, 2020, 11:16:06 AM: The other site has something similar with "first shoot of the day."

Post by: Trenton G. on March 19, 2020, 02:48:48 PM: Might be kind of fun.

Post by: WVbowhunter on March 19, 2020, 03:03:23 PM: I believe I still have the pdf of the target we used if we decide to run it again.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: evgb127 on March 19, 2020, 07:47:41 PM: I’ve been searching for the old post that has the “rules” for the competition. Anyone remember them?
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: WVbowhunter on March 19, 2020, 07:53:22 PM: 3 arrows max score of 30 points. Scoring rings started at 10 and went down 2 points per ring. I want to say we shot from 15 or so yards.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: evgb127 on March 20, 2020, 03:35:53 PM: Thanks for the reminder. Would you please post the .pdf of the target. Can’t wait to print it out and miss it by a mile.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: WVbowhunter on March 20, 2020, 04:15:02 PM: Couldn't find the original pdf but made up a new one to the same specs real quick. Let me know if anyone has trouble accessing it.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: smokin joe on March 20, 2020, 05:32:16 PM: This sounds like fun.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: WVbowhunter on March 20, 2020, 06:40:18 PM: Anyone interested in doing this as a virtual league?
Say once a week we do a thread where you can shoot and post up your scores just for some fun?
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: smokin joe on March 20, 2020, 07:10:00 PM: Sure.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: evgb127 on March 20, 2020, 08:01:34 PM: Just downloaded and printed copies of the target. If we get enough interest, I am up for a league. I’d even offer to keep score. It won’t be hard for me to add up all of my zeros. :biglaugh:
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: Pine on March 20, 2020, 08:34:50 PM: Another fun way you could do this, have a small target like a water bottle cap hang in front of a backstop.
Shoot at the target and count how many shots to hit it.
Could have a few different ranges like 10yds, 15yds, you get the idea.
Would score like golf, the low score is the winner.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: trick00 on March 20, 2020, 08:35:51 PM: If I remember correctly, whoever shot the best score this week would set the parameters for the next week, yardage, position, bow cant, # of arrows, warm-up or not, etc...
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”

Post by: evgb127 on March 22, 2020, 03:28:32 PM: Question for those interested, can you all download and print the target or would you prefer to use something else?
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: BearBandit on March 22, 2020, 04:08:13 PM: Yup no problem with that here
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: SlowBowKing on March 22, 2020, 07:17:33 PM: Yes! This is gonna be awesome. Unfortunately I’ve been in a bit of a shooting slump lately; too much work and stress. Hoping this will be the shot in the arm I need to get me back into it!

I can download and print, but game for whatever y’all come up with.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: BearBandit on March 22, 2020, 09:36:41 PM: I don't know why this made me chuckle but it did. Can we do a William tell target at one point? Points for hitting the apple points for a clean miss and deductions for hitting the person lol. I just picture my target with a sad face when I'm done hahhaha
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: Friend on March 24, 2020, 10:20:08 PM: I am planning to participate.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: flntknp17 on March 24, 2020, 11:49:07 PM: I'd like to participate.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: evgb127 on March 25, 2020, 08:30:30 AM: Looks like we have enough interest to start this up. Here are the proposed rules. Let me know if I missed anything.

A copy of the target can be downloaded on Page 1 of this post. If you can’t access it, dimensions are:

10-ring = 2”
8-ring = 4”
6-ring = 6”
4-ring = 8”

Each week, shoot three shots at your target from ~15 yards. Max score is 30.

Try to post your scores by Saturday so we can get results for the week by Monday morning.

The highest scoring shooter for the week will get to pick one extra fun shot for bragging rights. In the event of a tie for the week, the first person to post their score wins.

Am I missing anything?

Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: creekwood on March 26, 2020, 11:03:29 AM: It would be nice if the circles on that pdf target were concentric.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: creekwood on March 26, 2020, 11:28:14 AM: Maybe something like this...
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: creekwood on March 26, 2020, 11:28:56 AM: Or this...
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: evgb127 on March 26, 2020, 08:39:01 PM: I don’t have any strong feelings about what the target looks like as long as it is easy to print out and score. If those participating have a preference, speak now. Otherwise, let’s use the one Creekwood was kind enough to share attached here.

Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: smokin joe on March 27, 2020, 10:23:44 AM: In printing the target face on 8.5" by 11" paper, the black of the target is 5/8" in diameter. Is that how this should print?
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: evgb127 on March 27, 2020, 10:29:58 AM: Dang. You’re right. It prints smaller than I thought. Maybe we should go back to the original target.

Does that work better for everyone?
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: smokin joe on March 28, 2020, 06:22:56 PM: It printed OK for me.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: snakebit40 on March 28, 2020, 06:23:34 PM: Well I guess I'll be the first to post a score. It's been awhile since I've broke the Tip out so I was glad to hit the paper :biglaugh:

First shot was a miss, second was an 8, and third was a 6. Total score for week one was a 14. Bow was a Schafer Silvertip recurve 71@28.

Post by: evgb127 on March 29, 2020, 09:43:05 AM: There was a break in the rain and I was able to get out and shoot this morning.

I’m pretty happy with today’s score. A solid 24 with my Sunset Hill shooting Gold Tip Traditional Classics.

There is no hard deadline for this week. If you get scores to me by tomorrow we’ll count it. Otherwise, we will add you to the list for week two. Currently, Petrichor is in the lead. If no one beats a 28 by tomorrow, he gets to call the bonus shot for the week.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”

Based on the rules from the last time we did this, breaking the ring counts.

Post by: trad_bowhunter1965 on March 30, 2020, 09:05:38 PM: Here’s mine from tonight. [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.”
Post by: evgb127 on March 31, 2020, 08:40:00 AM: Well week one is a wrap. Thanks for those participating. Here are the scores:

Week One:

Petrichor – 28
Friend – 28
Kwc – 26
Smokin Joe – 26
Evgb127 – 24
BearBandit - 24
Trad_bowhunter1965 – 18
Snakebit40 – 14

Petrichor was the first to post the highest score, so he gets to pick a bonus shot for the week if he’s so inclined. For those wanting to join in, the shoot is open each week starting on Monday.

A copy of the target can be downloaded on Page 1 of this post. If you can’t access it, dimensions are:

10-ring = 2”
8-ring = 4”
6-ring = 6”
4-ring = 8”

Each week, shoot three shots at your target from ~15 yards. Max score is 30.

Try to post your scores by Saturday so we can get results for the week by Monday morning.

The highest scoring shooter for the week will get to pick one extra fun shot for bragging rights. In the event of a tie for the week, the first person to post their score wins.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.” Week 1 Scores Posted.
Post by: Petrichor on March 31, 2020, 10:40:46 AM: Alright I debated just doing an easy extra shot. But I figured let's have some fun with it. If you are so inclined for bonus shot. Take a new target and fold it in half and then into quarters so the printed rings are facing out. You basically should have a quarter target. This shot is risk vs reward, I'll explain in a moment. 15 yards in what ever position you deem comfortable fire 1 shot (more than welcome to warm up). This 1 shot with the folded paper could potentially give you 4 holes in the scoring area and this is your score. Highest possible for bonus shot is 40 points. After shooting calculate your score and post the target. Risk going for bull big chance of nothing or maybe a perfect score... this will be interesting.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.” Week 1 Scores Posted.
Post by: Petrichor on March 31, 2020, 10:53:18 PM: My bonus round. Played it safe.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.” Week 1 Scores Posted.
Post by: Pflum on April 01, 2020, 03:08:58 PM: Shot a 24 on the 3@15. Not sure how the bonus shot works, but got a 16 on that. Wish I could say I was playing it safe, just shot high.

How do line cutters work here? If we get the higher score, than I have a 4, 6, and 10 for a 20. If not, I've got two 4's and a 10 for an 18. The bonus shot went a little bit better. Four 8's for a 32.

Post by: evgb127 on April 06, 2020, 08:27:12 AM: Thanks to everyone participating. If you didn’t make it last week, no worries, join us at any time. Here are Week Two scores:

Pflum – 24
Smokin Joe – 24
Petrichor – 24
G.R. – 22
EVGB127 – 22
kwc – 20
Trenton G. – 20
BearBandit – 8

There was a three-way tie for high score this week of 24. Pflum was the first person to post his score, so he gets to pick this week’s bonus shot. Notably, no one has posted a perfect score yet. The “Broad Side of the Barn Award” a.k.a. posting a zero for the week also hasn’t been “won” yet. So you better shoot straight!

Post by: Pflum on April 06, 2020, 12:35:26 PM: Whew, I got lucky last week. Wasn't expecting my 24 to break the top 5.
Let's do a turkey type shot for the bonus. Season opens here in Ky this Saturday.
Same distance, 15 yards, sitting on a chair or stool. Draw your bow as slooooow as you can and put her in the 10 ring.
Thanks for starting this, we were just getting out to some 3d's when the poop hit the fan. This is good to make the practice interesting.

Post by: sancoon on April 08, 2020, 04:58:35 PM: I've been watching this post and was a little intimidated butt it looked like a lot of fun. I know I should be becoming a better shot as I get older but it isn't happening. I got an 8 and 2 4's for 16. 0 on the bonus shot. Looking forward to next week.

Cannot print the target for some reason, so what diameters are the circles and I'll draw it.

Post by: Trenton G. on April 08, 2020, 06:02:19 PM: So I guess I'm a bit confused on this week's bonus shot. I know we need to be sitting, but is the target folded up again or just normal?
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.” Week 2 Scores Posted.
Post by: Pflum on April 08, 2020, 06:16:52 PM: No, don't have to fold the target, or even get a new target. Just shoot your 3 from 15, then another shot sitting and drawing slowly.

A copy of the target can be downloaded on Page 1 of this post. If you can’t access it, dimensions are:

10-ring = 2”
8-ring = 4”
6-ring = 6”
4-ring = 8”

Each week, shoot three shots at your target from ~15 yards. Max score is 30.

Post by: Pflum on April 08, 2020, 08:40:01 PM: 22 for me this week. Muffed my own bonus shot, got a 4 on that. I'm shooting a Treadway Black Rock, 60", 50# at my draw length.

Many thanks Evan,

For some computer type reason I can't print it. Never-mind, now you've kindly given me the sizes, I'll draw one up over this long weekend (our Easter break) and have a crack at it and see how I score.

Post by: smokin joe on April 09, 2020, 02:38:52 PM: Very windy here today, so I figured I hunt in the wind so why not shoot for score: an 8, a 6, and a 4.

Then the super slow sitting shot: a line-cutting 10

Maybe I should shoot slower all of the time.

Seeing I'm living up to my somewhat computer illiterate skills, and cannot seem to print the target, I've drawn up one using the sizes Evan kindly posted back at my request.

Is everyone happy for me to use this so I can join in and play along?

Post by: evgb127 on April 10, 2020, 06:39:17 AM: Hi Lex, Your target looks great. Please join in on the fun. I hope you keep those pretty arrows of yours in the 10-Ring.

As for the rest of the group, who would be interested in changing the target either each week or every so often? I’m on the fence about it because I’m not too tech savvy and generally like a keep it simple approach. That said, if someone wants to volunteer their target designs, please feel free. Perhaps the high scorer for the week gets to decide on the next target?
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.” Week 2 Scores Posted.
Post by: Pflum on April 10, 2020, 08:10:44 AM: Sounds good to me. Different targets, different distances, as long as everyone does the same shot it's all good and fair.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.” Week 2 Scores Posted.
Post by: evgb127 on April 10, 2020, 08:19:46 AM: This week’s score is an 18. I shot without warming up, using 24-year-old aluminum arrows that I recently refletched. I forgot how much I love aluminum arrows. They will be making their way back into my quiver for sure.

For the bonus shot, I sat on a 5-gallon bucket and barely snuck one in the 6-ring.

For next week, I think I found our new target...

Your three shot score cracked two lines. Seems like a 4 6 10 to me. Good shooting.

Post by: G.R. on April 13, 2020, 12:47:34 PM: So, I guess I'm high score for week #3. So I think it's up to me to call this weeks (week#4) target. Lets use the same target and shoot the same 3 arrow group but this time add up your score from the three arrow group and subtract it from 30,low score wins. Bonus shot, 1 arrow from 20yds sitting.

Good Luck to All.

Haven't been feeling much like playing bows and arrows for a while, been a bit crook again and have been staying inside by the fire. Not the dreaded "Woo Hoo Flu" though, just a good old garden variety change of seasons head cold.

Been keeping on checking in here, watching you guys have fun though, some good shooting, and some not as good but no doubt fun shooting too.

Will get back into it if it's still going when I feel up to it.

Reading all the stuff on here Trad Gang certainly keeps me entertained. Very thankful to be a part of it.

Post by: evgb127 on April 27, 2020, 01:38:44 PM: Hard to believe it but we wrapped up Week 5. Here are the scores:

Pflum – 26 Bonus – 6
Pine – 24 Bonus – 10
JoeHenry – 22 Bonus – 4
G.R. – 22 Bonus – 8
Wudstix – 22 Bonus – 4
EVGB127 – 20 Bonus – 8
Trenton G. – 18 Bonus – 6
SmokingJoe – 18 Bonus – X
Kwc – 18 Bonus – 4

Well, the Pflum family seems to be dominating this competition with JoeHenry being the winner last week, and Pflum winning this week. Pine was a good sport with the bonus, and it paid off with a 10! Great shooting guys. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for this week. What bonus do you have for us Pflum?

As always, “contestant” are allowed to join in on the fun at any time.

Post by: Petrichor on April 27, 2020, 01:41:59 PM: Good shooting gents! Wanted to print targets yesterday but was unable to do to the craziness at work. If you all read the news for baton rouge you'll understand why. Anyway hope to compete this week. May get out to practice this week.

Post by: Pflum on April 27, 2020, 05:39:52 PM: How about bonus this week, shoot from 20 with your toes pointed strait towards the target.

Guess it is something about new bows. Been shooting my back up bow since this Covid-19 hit and finally got some arrows that will shoot consistently from it. Key was they had to handle VPA and Grizzly Instinct 190-200 grain heads.

Post by: Wudstix on May 04, 2020, 11:49:11 AM: Was thinking: both knees on ground kneeling from 17.3 yards. Small knee pad allowed. Potentially, 1 point extra for bows over 60”, but we’ll go with consensus on that.

Just getting o over tennis elbow. Arrows are not yet tune to this bow. Wind is blowing 35 miles per hour.

This is probably the first zero score! :scared: upper left corner, lower right corner in the tape (arrow pointing it out) and just breaking the paper on the right edge.

If we continue, im switching bows next week. :)

Shot with my new chinook really liking the bow.

Post by: evgb127 on May 07, 2020, 04:12:41 PM: This week I tried using some old woodies that I recently refletched. I ended up with two 6’s and an 8.

For the bonus, I took my time and put it in the 10-ring.... finally.

Bonus shot from the knees with a 62-inch Centaur:
8

Seems like the crazy work week didn't hurt me too much.

Post by: smokin joe on May 08, 2020, 10:43:00 AM: ....and what's worse, the glance-off shot tore part of a feather off of one of my arrows. I have some repair work to do. That's the good thing about carbon shafts with wraps, I can refurbish them pretty easily. It just takes some time.
Title: Re: Might be time for another “Virtual Shoot.” Week 6 Scores Posted.
Post by: Wudstix on May 08, 2020, 06:40:12 PM: Finally cooled off to 75 at 5:30 and I threw some arrows. 10-8–10 for first three and squeezed into 8 for bonus. I’ll have Evan post pics for me again.

Post by: Wudstix on May 08, 2020, 07:58:54 PM: Thanks Evan. It helps with allot of time on your hands to fiddle with arrows and shoot. My wife thinks I shoot too much cause my arms and back are tired. She thinks I should be doing her projects. Kinda am by organizing the garage and tossing stuff, cleaning out files from too long ago. Take two or a couple breaks to shoot my Kota. Think I finally figured out what length shoots with 238 grains up front.

Smokin Joe – 26 / Bonus 8
G.R. – 24 / Bonus 10
EVGB127 – 20 / Bonus 10
Monterey – 0

Some great shooting this week. Wudstix really brought his A game. Participant levels are starting to drop. However, as long as the interest is still there, I will keep this going. I’m also open to ideas on how to keep it interesting. What’s in store for us this week Wudstix?

Post by: Wudstix on May 11, 2020, 03:08:39 PM: Ok, Sta͏n͏dard 3 from 15 yards sitting on a stool/chair/seat. Bonus, shot however you like from 12 yards. Draw quarter size circle in each corner, kinda centered. One arrow at each corner circle. Most hits or barring that shortest combined measurement to center of all four circles. Something a bit different.

Post by: G.R. on May 16, 2020, 12:30:31 PM: 10,8,10 for me this week. The quarter size bonus circles were hard for me to see too, so I used a sharpie, it helped my old eyes to see them, not necessarily to hit them.

Good Shooting All.
Gary.

Post by: Wudstix on May 16, 2020, 10:02:59 PM: Shooting this evening was 15 yards from an old Army scissor stool with plywood top. First arrow was on the money for 10, then 10 a little higher left, then 8 (tore the ring pulling arrow out). Bonus top left 1-1/8”. Top right 1-5/8. Bottom left 1-1/4. Bottom right 1-1/2. (5-1/2” total)

Post by: Wudstix on May 16, 2020, 10:07:43 PM: With measurements. Shot Beman ICS 340, materials to finish woodies didn’t arrive, so I shot potential hog bullets from back up bow.

Post by: Trenton G. on May 17, 2020, 05:04:51 PM: Here is my entry for this week. A 4,6, and 10 for a 20. My top left corner shot was off by 2.75 inches. Top right was 1.75 inches. Bottom left was 1 inch. Bottom right was 6.75 inches.

I had similar results with the bonus round, where my first arrow was my best and I got progressively worse from there. :banghead:

I’ll post this week’s results later today so any stragglers better hurry up and shoot! As a reminder, this shoot is open to everyone each week. :archer:

G.R. – 28
Wudstix – 28
Smokin Joe – 26
Trenton G. – 20
EVGB127 – 20

Well, numbers are dwindling, so I think we will wrap this one up on week 10, unless there is renewed interest. That leaves two weeks left for someone to shoot a perfect score. From the past few weeks’ performance, my money is on either G.R. or Wudstix. That said, it’s G.R.’s week to pick the bonus. Let’s have some fun!

Good Shooting.

Post by: G.R. on May 19, 2020, 09:54:44 AM: Ok all,here's my Idea for the bonus this week. Using our usual target shooting from a distance that's comfortable for you(not more than 15 yds. or less than 5yds.) Shooting three arrows, draw, anchor, close your eyes..... then drop the string. Then add up your score. 'Whuduya' think?

Good Luck All.

We finally had someone shoot a perfect round. Congratulations Wudstix. Participation has continued to drop so perhaps it is time to wrap this up with one last shoot. What’s in store for us Wudstix?

It's been fun shooting with all you guys, congrats Wudstix on the only perfect score. Now, I'm going to head over to the St. Jude's auction, maybe see some of you guys over there, might even bid.

Also shot bonus from 15. First pic is view from 15. Second is up close of score. Not bad first three if you’re shooting at ELK!!!

I wouldn’t want to be an elk! :o

Post by: smokin joe on June 01, 2020, 09:17:29 AM: Well, I'm back to getting the "Working Stiff Award" for this past week with no time to shoot for a score.

Between work and the Honey-Do list of home-improvement repairs, time has been at a premium.

Nevertheless, this has been fun. So, thanks to all who participated and made this virtual shoot possible.

I have really enjoyed it, and I look forward to the next one.

Post by: evgb127 on June 02, 2020, 09:37:50 AM: Here are the Week 10 final scores:

G.R. – 26 / Bonus – 8
EVGB127 – 24 / Bonus – 6
Wudstix – 20 / Bonus – 6

Well, that wraps up our Virtual Shoot. Thank you all for participating. I really appreciated the distraction while my state was “on lockdown.” And, if we ever want to do it again, I’ll happily participate and volunteer as scorekeeper.

Now, as G.R. so aptly point out, it’s time to go spend some money on the St. Jude’s Auction! :campfire:
