RE: how to help a buddy
thanx paul.
he is like me. practices with fieldpoints and hunts with broadheads. hes ALWAYS just moved his sights come hunting season to shoot his broadheads. the kid he previously got the bow from never shot a field point. had it sighted in with his broadheads and thats what he shot.
the carbons are cheaper carbons....but so are his alumanums. but instead of hearing me out, he instantly blamed the only thing he never used...carbon arrows. i dont care what he shoots...he can shoot a lead arrow for all i care...i just hate to listen to him whine about how he sucks or this or that.
hes pretty much a lost cause though, the more i think about it. dont practice nearly enough. 95% of his practice is at 15 and 20yds when he does practice. once the broadheads are on his arrows he doesnt shoot period. doesnt pick up the bow to practice till late july..season starts at the end of september.
oh well...if he wants my help he can ask for it...he is too touchy for me...i rather deal with highly sensative bombs than this kid...i like to have someone to shoot with though...hate hearing him whine and moan about his shooting. he dont like it : learn more, shoot more, ask for help from me or a shop...
we started going to 3D shoots...first week i shot like crap and he shot better than ive ever seen him and only beat him by a couple points. the next week he shot like he normally does and i shot OK..i beat the pants off of him...he will no longer go to a 3d shoot.
ohhhh well. im here if he wants help and wants to learn...if not he can do his thing...his cousin is new...i got him into it a couple weeks ago. im definently going to try to get him heading the right direction...got him shooting OK at 30yds already. he just needs practice and work on it..
