dbHunterNY Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Along with some local clubs hosting outdoor 3D shoots, the local summer league I've been in just started back up. Shot yesterday evening with the high score of 303 I believe but there's room for improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Nice score db!! I just picked up a Scott Longhorn Hex release to try, may help a little bit with my tendency to trigger punch. Need to get to a local course to do a little practice before the R100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted June 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Nice score db!! I just picked up a Scott Longhorn Hex release to try, may help a little bit with my tendency to trigger punch. Need to get to a local course to do a little practice before the R100. a two finger doesn't have enough control, a four finger is easier to punch, and a three finger is just right in my mind. keep weight on your index finger until you settle in.

Turkeygirl Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 I started shooting it last night and found I seem to do better with 3 vs 2 fingers on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted June 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 shot again today. I seem to be hovering right around 300/330 with not shooting often. Hopefully I can get some practice in during the week or weekend to improve. Life happens I guess. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted June 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 shot again yesterday evening. ended up with a 304. I was rushing a bit. it's important to slow down. if you settle in and focus on pulling through with back tension that pin will slow right down and tighten up just before the release fires. that's part of the difference between shooting 10's and X's.

dbHunterNY Posted June 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 League night again yesterday evening. Shot a 306. Everyone busy this summer but still managing to get out and shoot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 Well I shot the R100 this weekend...not good shooting. But I found part of the reason I think. I took along both my bows. Was shooting my 2013 Hunter and just was not shooting consistently like I was. Noticed the cable along the cam is getting worn and frayed and my bow seemed noisy at the shot but everything tight. Decided last 1/2 of the one course to shoot my 2011 Hunter and my bow was dead in hand, quiet, and arrow groups improved. Some of it my error but I think something is off with my one bow....

Turkeygirl Posted June 28, 2014 Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 Yeah bow is 1 year old...I was shooting great up until a few days before the shoot, noticed my arrows weren't grouping right, thought it was me. At the R100...it was bad I thought it was me. Finally last 1/2 of course I noticed the serving on top string/cable is worn and frayed, almost squared on the sides...a little bit on bottom cam string serving as well but not like on top and bow making alot of vibration in hand...something is wrong. I think I'll send it out to the guy I sent my other bow to for new strings and tuning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbHunterNY Posted July 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 shot last last week and ended up with a 312/330 but I had tweaked the tune of my bow and think I made it worse. I made some adjustments and it seemed to be shooting really well so we'll see tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Time to start gearing in for bow season. Going to start shooting my hunting bow. Still at some point need to send out my 3D bow... Hope to get to a local 3D course to do some practice a few times as well...and maybe one of the video target ranges as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted July 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Yea I'm not too worried yet. In another month I'll start messing with my hunting bow. Shot this past tues and made up a week on top of that. Ended up with a 305 and a 311. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
