RE: coming back w/questions
What Lilhunter and I outlined is for someone that wants to improve their shooting enough to be competitive. I know guys that snap shoot and they go to all the 3D stuff just for fun. If that's what you want to to, you just need to get good enough to be able to shoot 30 yards and not lose an arrow. Frankly, you don't have to shoot the 30 yarders. You could zero out the score on the longer ones and step up to the youth stake to shoot if you wanted to. There'd still be plenty of targets in the 15-20 yard range to keep you happy. At least, there would be if the clubs around you set their range like our club sets ours.
