In terms of target archery, not there yet. For 3D I really would like just for one season to be competitive onthenational level in an amatuer open, or semi proclass. I may only have one year in my life where financially and family wise I am able to do what I need to get there,but that is what I am working for......just one year to be able to successfully compete at that level. Once I get there, I will evaluate if it is right for me to continue pursuing itbeyond the local level.

Indoors I think I will be content when I reachthe level to have potential of shooting a 60x 5 spot game, or 300/450 vegas game on any given night. I shoot regularly in my local indoor leagues with a lot of guys that will shoot, 3, 4, 5, up to maybe 6 or so perfect games out of an 8 week league. This is where I would like to be. Don't really care much about competing at the national level here, but would like to reach this level for myself and to be able to keep up with the local guys. My last 3D event of the year is next weekend (big regional event) and then I will go into indoors mode and will be specifically training for the upcoming winter season. This is the year for my first Vegas 300 I really think, who knows.......I may just shoot 60x's too. That would be a truly awesome accomplishment and something I have been working towards for a long time. You get there one arrow at a time though, and focus on the end result will surely make the road longer. I think people often lose focus on the fact that you need to pay attention to the setup, execution, etc........not so much on the score. Once the arrow is gone, whether it is an x ring or a total miss the only thing you can focus and have control over is the next arrow.

For hunting, I am very satisfied with my abilities. I am proficient with a hunting rig out to what I consider my effective distance. I don't push myself too hard here, I just make sure my equipment is tuned well, sighted in well, and make sure to shoot it 1-2 times a week for about a month before and during season to keep in the swing of things.
