I did it today. Ben came by before we headed out to a 3D shoot. I stepped out back and said to him as I nocked an arrow, Ben that 40 yard deer's 12 ring is the size of a skoal can right? He smiled and said, well actually that 12 ring is smaller.
First shot, 12 ring. He said you win the $500.
Shoot, today I hit the 12 ring at 35 yards with a osage selfbow first shot with a cedar arrow. But it doesn't mean much unless the money is in your hand.
In other words, about anyone on this page can do it some days.
He didn't just do it somedays. I believe we talked about something like the next time we shoot together he would do this. Sure enough he came out the basement door after I had shot a few and the first thing out of his mouth was, "so that 12 ring is about the size of a can of chew right?" Money or no money, it's still the first shot of the day, cold, and it was dead nuts.
Well, I know last year I wrote Rob and asked about the Harrisburg shoot and thier trad rules. He told me there were alot of zeros at that indoor shoot. So right there tells me somedays, even the best is off.
Don't get me wrong. I am sure Rob could out shoot me on a 3d course with the bird flu, and one eye put out. 3d is not my thing, and never will be.
