Unhappy Missed it by that much!

I am not nearly the shooter that most of you are on here. I don't use binoculars to shoot 3D or anything, but always had a goal to shoot "even." Today, I missed that goal by 1/8th of an inch. I had shot 2 "8"s and 3 11s in the first 14 targets, so I really wanted to hit that last 11 to get a 150. The small Rinehart deer target had an obvious hole in it that looked like it was where the X was, so I guessed it for 28 yards, and drilled the hole. Problem was, the 3/4 by 1/2" hole was just to the left of the X ring. The arrow missed the X by 1/8". 149/150 is still my best score ever, but I really wanted that 150. Can't go next week, so it will have to wait a couple of weeks. It was still a lot of fun, and my son shot very well with his Diamond Razors Edge too. Good day!

sounds like you had fun though. Kept at it, doesnt seem like you are far from a 150 at all.
