Title: TRADGANG FUN SHOOT WEEK 9
Post by: xbmedic on July 25, 2011, 08:25:00 PM
Ok, I couldn't wait to shoot so here we go.

4 arrows, 2 positions, 2 distances

1st arrow 10 yds. kneeling on both knees.
2nd arrow 10 yds. standing.
3rd arrow 15 yds. kneeling on both knees.
4th arrow 15 yds. standing.

Practice as much as you like, then shoot the series and post your score.

And I will start this round with a 32. First shot was an 8. Second shot was a 10. Third shot was a 6. Fourth shot was a line cutter for 8.

Practice as much as you need, Mudd. I shot 4 practice rounds on an old paper plate, then put up a new plate and shot the pic above.

Great shooting Al!  Way to throw down! I'm looking forward to getting onto this one.  Be good practice for the Bowhunter Happening this weekend up near Flagstaff.  Whoot!

Here's week 9. I took two practice shots, then let er fly.  Three 8s and a 10 for a 34. Interestingly, my two 10 yard shots were together, as were my two 15yd shots.

Looper, you prove once again why you are in the lead after 8 weeks.

Brett, that was a tight group until that last arrow decided to go on vacation!

Finally got around to shooting in the heat.Two 10`s from 10 yards.One what I will call a 8 because it`s just too close to tell with the other 10`s and a 6 for a 34.

PS: I doubt I'd get much out of it but it would not surprise me if I could not wring at least some water out of my shirt and I wasn't out there all that long.

Thanks guys and girls.This new glove and me finally getting the new bow tuned in is helping my groups.I still don`t normally group 3 in a quarter but love it when it happens.Shooting these traditional bows is so much darn fun not to mention addictive.Here`s a couple shots from the same afternoon at 20-25 yards  (http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s241/john7821/165577116_photobucket_38070_.jpg?t=1311966529) .

I got some surewood fir's in last week so I was hoping to shoot week 9 with them. But it didn't work out. Hopefully I can shoot week 10 with them! Good shooting!

Missing a few but here's Week 9.  gto_guy and his triple-dime round (score 36) get to call Week 10!  For the rest of you, get your scores in!  Good shooting all,
Brett

I like the spread sheet presentation and the whole idea! May have to try it if I get a bow.
Title: Re: TRADGANG FUN SHOOT WEEK 9
Post by: b.glass on August 02, 2011, 10:05:00 AM
If you get a bow? You don't have a bow? You got to get a bow!

Are you looking at anything in particular?

I can't get arrow 4 to co-operate. I shoot a couple of rounds and that last arrow is always way off so I try again the next day.

Last night my hubby decides to mow around the area that I am shooting in. I swear he does that on purpose! And the horse is whinny'n to be fed. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it! If I can't get it right today I will post what ever I get.
