Hi,

yesterday i was at my second 3d Tournament.
Thought id share some pics of that traditional only event.
It were 120 participants divided in ranking groups like women, children, primitive, woodies etc. I made it to the 14th rank of 41 in my group (368 of 560 points) and our club trainer made it to the 3rd rank. Was alot of fun and good practice for longer or brush-hindererd shots and the possibility to shoot at "not so common animals".

the start-gathering:
 

a robin hooded arrow from the warmup:
 

the bison long range:
 

the stag long range uphill:
 

the ibex, the gully in front of him really messed with youre judgenment:

the special shot; hitting the fox meant minuspoint:

The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
