well good luck to you on the turkey hunting, its a blast to kill one with a bow and I've done it once. I've got a circuit shoot this weekend, so I'll be on the 3-D course and hopefully getting a higher score this time around. So I can drop the lower score from the first time I shot this course. good luck to you Tyler and I'm sure your Dad will be there as well.

2010 Archery Tournament/Practice Scores

Late reply. We finished up the indoor 5 spot 5 week thing. I tied for 2nd place and only shot 2 300s.

Our shop hosted Illinois first 2010 ASA Indoor paper target event, DAIR. I nailed down 1st in Super Senior class.

Of the Illinois ASA 3D Qualifier I had to shoot Known 45 because I recorded all the known yardages. I finished in 3rd place for my first outdoor 3D contest. I was a little hesitant about shooting for 12s, but got more aggressive on the last 20. I got 10 of the 12s here. I just plain messed up. Others talking, confusion and brain dead I set my sight for the wrong distance and shot a 5. Of course I'm peeved and don't screw my head on and shoot a 8 on the next target. I got my head screwed on after that. I drilled 2 12s on the next 2 targets and 10ed out on the last 2. One screw up and I was down and out. Those two targets took me out of 1st place. 1st had 398 and I had 392. High Overall was 410. So not to bad for 61 years old.

Good shooting Sonny, don't beat yourself up to much because things like that happen.;) I've always hated it when I had a brain fart on a target and its usually something you can't make it back up then costing you in the end. You still shot very well, though.

I've had a lull in my tournaments over the last three weeks and not shot any, we just didn't have any to go too which was a bummer. I do have one coming this weekend and I'm ready to sling some arrows at some foam, it is a circuit shoot some I hoping to do well in it.

Tyler, on your 40 target range, do you not have 12's you can shoot?

I think there is a 12 ring on the target but they do not count it. It is just 10, 8, and 5. I think it is because these 3D shoots really arent very big and competitive.

I see, there used to be a club around here that we'd go shoot and they had the same set-up. All 10, 8, and 5 shots, that made it fun because you got what you shot.

Ya see Mark, sounds like Sonny is letting yo win to make you feel guilty and help him with the targets. LOL I miss shooting with my long time archery buddy.

I think you're right. He did get me to promise to show up early and setup this week. I think he's gonna win this week. :D
