I switched this year from BHFS to $MFS and it has been a hard transition. I went to a black dot instead of my green pin and started to get alittle bit of panic when that big black dot covered the whole target. I went back to my green pin and got aggressive with my bow arm and started finding the center once again.

Shot a vegas face with couple of guys and ended up shooting a 299-26X. Man dropping that one kinda stunk but oh well. Also shot a 5 spot the other day and had to leave with 3 ends left. I had dropped one X.

Shot today and shot half a 5 spot and was clean when I left.

Just gotta remember to get my bow arm into it and get my release elbow into the shot also.

This weekend is the K.C. pro-am and I will be shooting the $MFS class. Nothing better then getting your butt kicked by the big boys:D

Keep your eyes open. I got a local buddy going to KC this weekend. His name is Jame Jamison. He's got the potential to shoot well in any class. He shot semi pro in OK for several years before getting out because of family problems.............He's been shooting Vegas face for the last 3 months dang near every day of the week and sometimes 3 to 4 games. I've seen him lay down several 300 27 to 29X games lately. If his mental game stays strong he will be hard to contend with. Even after being out for 3 years nobody has beat him here and he has only been shooting indoor again for the last few months.

Shot my first 5 spot round ever last night. Shot a 285-28X. Should have been higher but on the last shot of the night I misfired resulting in a zero. Lots of room for improvement..............We did blind draw 3 partner last night for the money shootoff round. My team made the shootoff round and won so it was a sweet little surprise getting some money back on top of entry money.

Nice shooting Hutch. I have never heard of the blind 3 draw before.

I shot a 10x-257 so don't feel so bad. :rolleyes::D

Well boys my luck has changed............I just got my Apex7 back with a new set of WC string and a Copper John Ants sight-Viper Scope-6X lens-.10 up pin. I sold this bow a month ago before Xmas and hated to see her go but need the money. Well she's home with new hardware including some 2514's and a bodoodle rest. I'm ready to smash some spots.

Well..............Due to some being late we only shot half a round of 5 spot with 1 warm up end. Still don't have my Apex 7 setup so I shot my Illusion with Sure Loc and the low power scope............142...........Don't remember the X count. This shooting BT is having it's ups and downs. Flinched on one tonight and shot a zero. I'll get thru it............it's getting easier.

Oh and won $20 in the shootoff round...........Ching Ching.

Went and shot at a different range tonight...........My illusion and the low power scope............In the 7th end I got tired........Shot a 22 1X so I stopped for about 3 or 4 minutes and started again. In the 8th I shot a 25 4X.......

296 34X

Got my A7 cam in and I'm ready. I'll have it setup tomorrow.

Hutchies this is just my personal experience but when you go with a higher power lense the pin movement will be more dramatic. The biggest thing that I can tell you is that there WILL be pin movement no matter what. Even the best archers out there have it. The more that you watch that pin move the more it WILL move. Concentrate on the X. Focus on that X and execute your shot. Form and consistency will always win over pin chasing.;)

Thanks bud for the Advice............I traded off a spot hogg release and got a Viper with 3X and .19 up pin in it so I'll have a 3X and 6X. Also got in both cams for my Mathews. Fixing to go set it up and see which one is more comfortable.

We shot vegas face last night...............282 8X.............Man I hate Vegas.

Vegas face again tonight..............Shot a 293 with 14X's.............Shot a 30-3X on next to last round. Last round I had 20-2X...........was at full draw pulling pulling and the guys next to me cell phone went off................Shot a 9. One thing I did tonight was shoot with both eyes open. The place we were at it was dim and it worked great.

Main thing is I got the A7 setup and shooting now and man it felt good. Didn't like the CJ Ants site so I mounted the Viper on the Sure Loc.

Dude you stink, give it up already :D:D:D

Good shooting, I shot last night as well.....I finally got the bow sighted in so I do have to aim right of where i wanna hit. Still got lotsa practice though before I get to being consistent.
