MCH Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 Favorite---Standing bear...for some reason, I always shoot good on one. Least favorite---no contest--any freaking turkey!! Strutting, facing, facing away...you name it. I X'd one Saturday at 27 yards...you would've thought I had won the lottery.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrud Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 Re: 3-D target preferences?? Oh boy...that is a toughy... My favorite is probably any deer, buck, doe, spike, fawn, Rinehardt, McKenzie, Delta, it doesn't matter, I always shoot them pretty well. Without question, my least favorite is anything white. Goats, sheep, I always miss judge them...by A LOT! I always hit them real far forward too for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VtBowhunter Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Re: 3-D target preferences?? I like the turkeys and Javelinas, but my favorite would have to be the mountain lion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCH Posted March 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Re: 3-D target preferences?? I love javelinas. Supposedly, there will be a white goat at my next shoot, Saturday. I'm looking forward to it. The first target I ever missed completely was a bedded buck at 35. Tend to remember that everytime I draw down on one, now...LOL. I like the gator. The moose is something else, also. My wife's lucky that there's not a course open year around down here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magnatecsteve Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 Re: 3-D target preferences?? Favorite, most any deer sized target, heck, some of the African deer have AWESOME aiming points. For worst, have to go with the turkey, especially facing away!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck2 Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Re: 3-D target preferences?? The moose is great. After half a round of shooting bears, deer, sheep, and goats, you have to give the distance estimate on the moose a real going over. So darn big it's really easy to under estimate. I don't like the blasted leopard. All the spots look the same, and even after picking out the proper aim point, I lose it once I draw. Grrr.

AaronS Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Re: 3-D target preferences?? Least favorites: hen turkey, standing bear quartering away (love it head on), alligator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griz Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 Re: 3-D target preferences?? there is one target I don't like and it will get me every time I see one. The bedded deer.... I will shoot under it every time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RJK Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 Re: 3-D target preferences?? Like them all, favorite would be elk from the elevated platform. My least favorite is the standing bear, can never seem to ten that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rut-Nut Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 Re: 3-D target preferences?? Like Cannuck, my favorite is the Moose- by far! Know what you mean on the distance. Last year they had one set in a field, shooting uphill thru tall grass(in front of target). The thing was 63 y, but it looked more like 47. Unless you hit the vitals, you couldn't see where you hit, and if you missed, you would not hear that tell-tale thump of the arrow hitting the target. That thing was a blast- it was the first target of the 3rd course and alot of people just kept getting back in line to shoot it again!!!!
