Default WOW....What a shot!

My sister took this pic of me shooting my Hoyt. She clicked one off just before the arrow left the string. Probably can't do that again if she tried....

Neat pic!

Are you able to see your pins well at that time of the evening?

Guys,
Rob,The shot was forgotten as soon as I released. Sorry....But I shoot so much that I don't keep track anymore. I am able to hit pennie sized dots at 30 yards consistantly but it took much effort because my form was bad in the beginning. I started having someone take pics of me a while ago and saw what needed improvement. That was the best thing I could have ever done. I improved greatly and when I practiced I made each and every shot count. Ducsauce, I didn't have a hard time at all that night with the pins. I was shooting at my 3-D turkey and could see them well for that time of the day. I do however have a new sight. I bought a team extreme 900 sight and all I can say is WOW. I bought the acc. light also and the pins glow very well. The sight that was in the pic will go on my sons new bow.

Well @ 27fps out of them bows.....it's not THAT much of a feat!

Just kidding,.....just kidding...

Jeff

BTW....that's a heck of camera to get that image (arrow/fletchings/string) that clearly at those speeds.

Usually I would have been shooting lumenok nocks at that time of night. We have been trying to get a picture of the lumenok making a light trail toward the target. I only had 1 pack of those knocks wich contained only 3 per pack. I ruined all of them either by hitting the nock with another arrow or shooting the fletching off of them. I didn't have anymore this night and it figures......we get the shot we were looking for......lol.

P.S. SBgobblers..... 27 FPS? Thats unheard of...... Mine only shoots 20 FPS......LOL . Have a good day guys.
