I shot my 1st 300 round ever last week using the 5 spot targets and shot 300 with 42 X's. You are correct about wearing you down, I started like a house on fire and started to scatter them alittle towards the end. I was shooting 63 pounds on my LX and hadn't shot an arrow since early November, really felt it in the bow arm shoulder the next day!! Oh well, with about 8 inches of snow on the ground it gives you something to do!
