Default RE: Anybody here this good of shot?

In the early IBO days I remember seeing a guy in the Easton eagle eye shoot off under the lightswith a long bow out shoot all the compounds, release, scopes and so onwith a long bow instinctive at long ranges.

I guess you didn't read this. When I was younger I could keep all my arrows in a pop can out to about 40 yards with a 65 lb recurve bow instinctive and at 30 yards you could put your finger around my 4 to 5 arrow groups. I had a high 280 average on a indoor targets instinctive, but in our club had plenty of completion in bare bow. I shot a 536 once on a 3 D shoot with 560 possible and that was at the reg stake with the compound shooters not atthewomens stakes and no 12 ring in 1982, Most of all the good shooter that I competed with are all compound shooter now. If we all had to shoot recurve bow you see a lot of great shooter surface because now they are shooting compounds. The guy in the video could possibly be one of them.
