OK I'll be first to post.

My Grandfathers 69' Bear Grizzly 56" 50# @ 28" & Gold Tip Trad 35/55's.
That was pretty tough since I don't normally shoot like that.

Great first challenge!  I only have two 125gr field points so I have two pics.  This is with the Samick.  Loving this bow.

First two after 3 warm-ups (glad I took my warm-ups turned around):

Second two:

If cut line is higher score, put me at 32.  (Thanks, Snakebit)

Good fun!
Rusty

Look at a post above for the dia. of the circles.  I believe it is a 9" plate, and the less technical circle sizes are the natural circle line in the plate just inside the fold pattern, inside of a roll of duct tape, and a quarter.  Someone correct me if I am wrong.  About the circles that is.    :D

I have a question.  How long is a step?  Are we talking yards?
Title: Re: TRADGANG FUN SHOOT ROUND 1!!!
Post by: Eugene Slagle on May 30, 2011, 08:01:00 AM
12 steps for me is just past 10 yards.

Welp, here's mine, not too good but leaves room for a massive come-back on round 2       :D    

Picture is click-able for the full size shot    ;)

If cuts count for the inside ring I guess I got 24. Shot with a #47 Bob Lee longbow  :)

I took 12 normal steps, putting me around 28-30 feet from my target.

I am impressed no matter how old you are.    :notworthy:  Hard on anyone to twist 180.    :eek:   I shoot with my feet pointed about 90 to the target so with a starting point of my feet pointed directly away from the target I only had to twist 90.

30 for me.  This is about 10 yd. in my barn, where I spend all winter shooting so it is probably my best distance right now.  I did spend some time working on how best to make the twist while maintaining upper body alignment as close as possible to normal. That for me meant turning mostly at the hips, knees and ankles ending in a half setting squat.  I turned normal and shot a 32.  Then tried it the way I would probably normally do it with no thought by just turning and shooting. I got about 22.  Working on figuring out the best form helped a lot.

Post by: snakebit40 on May 30, 2011, 03:08:00 PM
I try to step off in yards. I just didn't want to put yards as a measurement because Aunty is from NZ and I didn't know what they use. So as close to 12 yards as possible.

Reed (7) decided he wanted to shoot his newly-skinned bow.  (Copperhead on top, water moccasin on bottom)

(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll101/rpmahony/2bbbb061.jpg)

I didn't make him turn around but here's his target after 4 arrows.  (His 12 steps were a tad shorter than daddy's)  :D

Good shooting everyone!
It's cool looking at the different arrows.

Nice shooting guys! I had a family gathering all day so I wasn't able to shoot, but I'll try and do it in the morning. Its a lot of fun to look at everybody's groups and hearing the comments. I hope you guys had fun with the awkward position, I thought it would be a fun one to start out with.

Zradix- Nice group!

Post by: snakebit40 on May 30, 2011, 11:21:00 PM
Correct me if I'm wrong but we've got a tie for the lead so far with, Rusty Snuffers and looper with scores of 32.
Title: Re: TRADGANG FUN SHOOT ROUND 1!!!
Post by: Rusty Snuffers on May 31, 2011, 08:26:00 AM
That group looks better than some of my rifle groups.   :D

Nice shooting!

BTW, Looper's 32 looks better than mine, so if that remains the top score, Looper can do the honors for next week.

I usually don't shoot so close, or much while facing backwards... I am happy with it...

Didn't have a paper plate and made it a lil harder by drawing a 8 inch circle instead of 9 in but the others are right...

Post by: Yeoman Bowman on May 31, 2011, 06:44:00 PM
All right. Here goes nothing.

We didn't have any 9" paper plates. So I used a corn tortilla. Seemed to work ok.

Except that I made the 3rd ring (the 6 pt ring) too big.   :readit:     :knothead:    So I'm gonna guess the 3 shots at the bottom of the target are within the real 5 1/4" (6 pt) ring and the arrow on the upper left is outside the 6 point ring & is worth 4 points.

Which gives me a total of 22. Did I do this right?

Round 1
(http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n226/gdwamsley/Photo-0072.jpg)

28.  

I don't feel too bad about that.  My best shot for scoring was the one i thought about the least.  My first 2 warm up shots I drilled where the 10 ring would have been.  Decided to shoot 1 arrow at a time.  Maybe I won't warm up next time.  Guess it depends on the rules huh.

Shot with my Dale Stahl 47# limbs.

Dammit--screwed up replying to last--Osage61, you've got a 20--there is no 0-ring.  See page 1, Mike Most's post describing target.

Mudd, it looks like a 22, if that lowest one cut the line.  20, if not.
Title: Re: TRADGANG FUN SHOOT ROUND 1!!!

It broke the outside edge of the line but not all the way through it.

Hello snakebit40, are you down with tallying this shee-bang?  I'll work up scores if you want.  Might need some kinda .jpg file height forgiveness from the moderators, to allow all the contestants :-)
Title: Re: TRADGANG FUN SHOOT ROUND 1!!!
Post by: Brett Wilmore on June 02, 2011, 10:16:00 PM
Mudd where I'm from, touching the line is counting.  Looks like two 8's and a 6 to me.

Tomorrow is the last day to post for this shoot. I decided to make this a weekly shoot instead of a bi-weekly. I'm having WAY to much fun looking at everybody's groups and scores lol.  Sorry for the short notice.

Also, I can keep track of scores. If you want a sheet that shows where everybody placed I guess PM me and we can figure something out. Thanks for shooting guys!

I finally made it out the store for some paper plates.  Shot at 12 yards with my TS Mag.  Got lucky on two of the shots and broke the 8 line for a total of 30.

Post by: Zradix on June 03, 2011, 05:57:00 PM
Might be.
Kinda hard to tell from the pic.
Those B-heads cut a big hole.
Hard to judge the center of the hole in the pic without giving an advantage to the B-head slice.

I'd say it's on you to make the decision as to where a field point would've cut the line or not.

Heck, I'm not the judge anyway...but you did ask.

Nice shooting whatever the score.

rm 81..

Like your fletching.

That top one musta been close. lol
But, If it cuts it, it cuts it.

Good shooting!

Got a late entry if its not too late, my youngest boy Christopher decided at the last minute he would give it a try. He doesnt shoot very often but he shot a better score than 1 of his older brothers and was pretty excited about it. he said he is ready for next weeks shoot! shot a 20
