Title: Mastershot
Post by: Flying Dutchman on May 07, 2012, 01:47:00 PM
Today I went for training at my archery farm. They told me for the next tournament the targets would be on far distance. So I trained that today. This shot was at 55 yards. Dead center in the kill. I missed some other shots too, but I hitted a lot too, among some kills. This one was the best. I was aiming at the 3D vulture, just on the right side of the pack.

Bow: Cari-bow Peregrine, 45 lbs
String: SBD 6 strands ultra D-10
Arrow: My own handmade Stika Spruce, 450 grains, 8.75% FOC


Man I felt good!That shot sure made my day!

I love BIG targets Moose and Elk. There are times I wish they were bigger.I also like if they're close under 10 yds is nice. I think it might be my eyes I was sure I seen drool. You are great shot,keep it up.

Very good shot!  It's a great feeling to make those long ones.  If only we could do it that way every shot...

These days I have trouble seeing targets at that range. I sure can't hit them. Congratulations on good shooting.
