hutchies Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 I found a local league here that shoots on Monday and Wednesdays. You pick which day you shoot. Anyway they are right in the middle of a 10 week session. Soon as they restart I am going to be shooting a little 5 spots. I shot with them last night and it is addictive.

The_Kat Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Re: I shot 5 spot last night It's tough! I can't shoot a 5 spot to save my life, the precision shooting gets my nerves. Now I can shoot a 3-D target fairly well, but them X's just make me fall apart. Good luck buddy! Hope you do well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Re: I shot 5 spot last night shooting spot targets guys will make you concentrate on shooting form and execution. dont panic if your not shooting well. it takes time. learning to let the pin float is tough and takes work. its all about just relaxing , let the pin float and squeezing the release off or letting the shot happen. which ever works best for you. once oyu have been shooting spots for a while , then if you want to get into the other areas of spot shooting , theres few of us here that can help you along. however i recommend that if your just a hunter to use your hunting gear to shoot spots. the infoamtion you gain and the practice will definately help you when the big one comes by.

ODH Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Re: I shot 5 spot last night tony, what kind of rest should I use for shooting feathers w/ fingers? I have a rest made for release shooters, but its eating my feathers slowly but surely, thanks, Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Re: I shot 5 spot last night i would think a Tm hunter type of launcher would be ok. a Lizard tongue would be even better. also a trophy taker would be good. if its setup right it will be out of the way before the feathers get there. while i shoot a release , i do shoot 5 feathers on my Indoor target arrows and a Trophy taker rest. are the feathers fletched with any Helical to them ?
