Shot about like I thought I would but was hoping for better.Big difference from what I'm used to.Good thing is there's nowhere to go but up from here.

"Good thing is there's nowhere to go but up from here."

That had me laughing becuase I have been there out on the course. Best advice I can give is relax. I have a hard time doing that for some reason and I don't start doing ok until about midway of the course.

I don't shoot well in front of an audience. If you've done well before, you'll do well again with the new equiptment. :archer2:

battman, I'm sure you'll improve. Keep the faith. I shot my umpteenth 3d shoot on Sun. and "there's nowhere to go but up from here". I think I missed 6-7 maybe 8 targets. By far my worst outing. I've been fighting target panic for what must be pushing 2 years now. I had things going pretty good in the back yard and thought I was getting on top of it, went out in public and...KAPOW!! Oh Well, I guess I'll hitch up my pants, roll up my sleeves and get back at it. I WILL BEAT THIS THING!

I think the hardest thing for me to do was focus on a spot.I wonder if they'll mind if I run up to every target and put an orange sticker on it?Thinking about hitting another one here in a couple weeks.

Tony,

I broke four arrows at our last club shoot and that was not my first time at a 3D...or breaking arrows. Bill Stroupe likes it when I get in that zone. Lol

The thing about 3-D is you can't beat yourself up on it because you probably would not have taken all the shots presented prefering to wait for a better shot, at least the ones I have shot.

It does make you a better shot though, so please continue.
