NYBUCK Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores Tony it is five spot. I know what you mean by helping my shooying. Man you really have to concentrate. Its good for me. I really enjoy it. The one thing I noticed is that for some reason I always shoot to the left indoors. Why is that. I have to do some work on my sight cause I cant get it anymore left right now. By the way, great shooting Tony. At least I know what you guys are doing now when you post your scores.

Canuck2 Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores hangunnr, nice shooting. nybuck, Tony called it. Until this year, I always used my hunting rig for all types of shooting, including indoor spots and outdoor 900 rounds. As you said. it makes you concentrate and the improvement over time is noticeable. As for shooting off to one side, perhaps you're getting reflection from the lights. I experienced similar problems outside with my fibre optic pins, depending on the time of day and which direction the Sun was coming from. I seemed to light up the pins more on one side than the other, so I was getting windage changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck2 Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores Monday evening this week was just a relaxing BS session with the boys. Nobody scored and whenever anyone felt the urge to shoot, he just got up and flung a trio of arrows. After awhile, everyone would mosey down the range and retrieve. Tonight I shot a Vegas round of 30. Score was 293-10x. The upcoming B.C. Indoors in April uses this format, 2 targets each day for 2 days. If I edge myself up a couple points per target, I should do OK in the old geezers division. Got to think cautiously positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinwheel5 Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores Shot my first 3-d Sunday with my new bow. Release was going off very nice but the rain made vision through my scope almost impossible. Plus I almost froze to death. I started on the more difficult side before the rain started and shot the first 6 targets 2 down. Anyway I only shot 27 down, not bad for the conditions.

Tony Posted January 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores im sad . i shot my last indoor 5 spot in our local archery shop last night . we are moving everything this morning to rays garage . he will run a pros shop out of it , but no shooting lanes. i shot 300-50 X last night. started out pretty hot ( 18 X )and then just had 1 shot each end that i lost focus on. closest plave for me to shoot is 27 miles away. its really nice and has great lighting. i will post a few pics of it here . it has a max of 34 yards from the shooting line, but you can get 45 if theres no one else shooting . good shooting guys .

ultratec1 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores Went to a Tournament in Columbus, Nebraska and shot a 300-53X and the next day shot a 360 vegas round and ended up shooting a 353 in that. I started out real good shooting 30 straight X's, thats including the 2 practice ends. My next 4 ends were all 4x ends and the last was just a mix.

Straight Shooter Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores I'm bummed, the weather killed the chances of me making the first 3-D on the year, here in NC. I guess I'll try to make the one this coming weekend. I'm itching to get out and shoot some foam! Keep up the great shooting guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck2 Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores I nabbed the opportunity to shoot twice this week, Monday and tonight, and shot Vegas targets both times. Monday I got 293-9x and tonight 291-12x. Tonight there was quite a turnout and we BS'd more than we shot - in fact, it was a real good opportunity to try and shut out all the background noise going on and concentrate on the shot. Good practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck2 Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores Tony, that is very fine shooting; good for you. Them baby x's are really elusive. A hearty congratulations on taking the class. I went on a bit of a road trip Saturday to a new facility about 70 miles from here, mainly to see what it was like to shoot somewhere other than the comfortable confines of the home court. It was much more spacious than what we have here, and the lighting was much brighter. So bright, in fact, that it overpowered my .019 pin and I shot horrible. But it was a terrific experience in that I now know that I have to contend with varying conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted February 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores thanks C2 . a .019 pin ! cripes i cant even see that .. traveling to new places will definately make you get experience for all types of lighting and surroundings. its a lot of fun too. i shot a nice little 300-55X with Ultratec1 last night. he was sick and was having probs just standing . but it was fun to talk to him and get the skinny from his good shooting at the Nebraska shoot. get well bud.

NYBUCK Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores Question for all you competition shooters .... The guy that owns the bow shop told me that I am the only one shooting in the bow hunter class, I told him I didn't really care. But the whole league is handicapped. All the open shooters are getting 65 % he suggested that he could give me 80%. I don't know and really doesnt matter to me. I am just having fun shooting with these guys. Do any of you have any ideas how to run this and make it fair at the same time ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest logcabin51 Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores Before when we shot league everyone got 80%.No matter what class you shot.You're total score with handicap could not excede the 300rd you were shooting.So if you shot a 290,your're handicap is 8 with a total score of 298.

Tony Posted February 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Re: 2006 Competition scores boy i was on last night at league. i shot a monster 299-50 Xs.. guess it was bound to happen. i changed my draw length and shortened it by a 1/4 inch. i tried to make things better and they got worse. yep sometimes i just wonder what im thinking. today im changing back to my normal 29 inch draw. good post Logcabin. good to see you helping the guys out here.
