RE: Practicing sessions
Our sportsmans club has a broadhead league that starts the first week in August and runs to third week in Sept. (opening day Oct.1 in Mich.). We shoot cardboard cutouts of deer, turkey and bear at unknown distances that are backed by a pile of sand. You are allowed to use 8 power binocs but no range finders. Scoring on the targets are 20 ring 16 ring and 10 for a body hit. They also have elevated platforms at some stations. Yardages are 20 yds. to 37 yds.. By the time this league is over you are usually pretty tuned up and good to go. I love it when many of the 280-290 score shooters come home empty handed year after year. Sometimes they just don't realize what it takes to actually draw down on a deer.
