Dakota Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Well, since I got my Outback I've been shooting 4-5 times a week whether at my neighbors shooting his bedded doe target or in my garage/driveway shooting my Delta RB Buck. So far my groupings have been pretty consistent with my arrows always finding the vitals on either target at 20-30 yards. I'm thinking of either buying a year long membership at Archery Outfitters here in Sioux Falls (they have two outdoor ranges, target and 3-D animal target, and an indoor range) or joining a league somewhere. Maybe even both! Man, I can't wait for bow season! Dakota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Shooter Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Keep practicing Dakota, you will be amazed at how much conifdence you'll have entering the woods this coming season. I'm glad to hear that your enjoying shooting that much and I'm there with you on practicing more as well as doing more tournaments. Keep shooting buddy!

Dakota Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Thanks, Straight Shooter! What I've been trying to do to help my confidence in the field is shoot one arrow; one shot one kill you know! However, while my field points keep smashing through the heart/liver/lungs area, my broadheads seem to fly to the right either hitting the shoulder on the bedded doe or hit the gut area on my RB Buck. I'm shooting Magnus Stingers and I'm thinking of switching to expandables like the Rage 3 that supposedly shoot like a field tip. Well see how that goes.

Straight Shooter Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 I agree totally, One Shot One Kill! sounds like you might need a little bit of tuning with those Stingers, those heads generally fly very close to fieldtips. I've shot those and my nieghbor hunts with them as well. Of course the Rage head is great as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Practice makes perfect. Shot after shot, your confidence raises more and more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dakota Before you spend the money make sure your bow is tuned correctly. Here's a link to Eastons Complete Tuning Guide...broadhead tuning is on page 14. http://www.thearcher.com/resourceCentre/itemDetails.cfm?itemId=2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakota Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Thanks, Gary! I think I've seen that before as well. Dakota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitetail Freak Hunter Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Right now I'm working back very slowly since my shoulder surgery in November. So far so good, and you would be amazed at what they did. But I have been working real hard at my PT along with just recently picking up my bow again twice a week. Keep up your practice gobblerbane08, and it will all feel so natural when you out in the woods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
