Here's a targets I like.  If y'all want to use it we can.  If you print it from here it come out the size of a tweety bird or I can send you the .pdf version which fills a whole letter size sheet of paper.

What is the yardage/situation for the shot?

Bowsander

my shot is 15 yards.  you stand up.  hang a ping pong ball by fishing line in front of a backstop.  You get 2 arrows and you need to stick the arrow through it not nic-it.

It wasn't my turn to call the shot.  I just posted the pic if someone wanted to use it.

This has been fun, let's keep it going.  This next one should be a real BALL buster!  


I'll have to spray paint a black background on my backstop because it's all white.

Well here's my entry for this week.





I don't think I'll be able to puncture the ball though.  I hit it well on three different shots and it bounced to the side.  It might because I have bullet points and their not sharp and narrow.  I'll try broadheads and blunts next.

Next nine shots.

Hey VA Bowbender, I couldn't help but notice you were shooting both three and four fletched arrows, which do you like better/is there any difference?

Can't wait to do this shoot, have to find something to use or go get some ping pong balls.

I don't see any appreciable difference between 3 and 4 fletch.  With 4 you don't have to worry about cock feather location.
