RE: 103yd with Bow & Arrow in the wind??
 

Looks like he killed it to me. I don't know his level of skill to be able to judge him. Byron Ferguson can shoot an aspirin in mid-air at 100 yds with a mirror held up and shooting the bow behind his back, after the arrow is deflected off of a bottle opener that just opened a bottle of coke and poured it in a glass; allwhile a hot supermodel sits on his lap. Well, I lied about the hot supermodel part.

HCH, Byron will show how mnay times it takes him to make many of the shots he takes.

RE: 103yd with Bow & Arrow in the wind??
 

I'll tell you what, I am not going to run broadside if front of him at 100 yds and give him one shot. My wife loves me and I wouldn't be coming home.

Wrong- wrong no matter how you put it. If thats the guy from pse i lost all respect for him. That was total bullship. Rich

Hardcore,
I agree, I wouldn't let that guy shoot at me from 200 yards away!

Me either MC. I know that Dan Evans, who invented the Trophy Taker drop away, practices regularlyat 100 yds. I have read that hecan hittight groups at this range and likes being able to do thisfor a followup shot, if the opportunity presents itself. Different people have different skill levels. Hell, some people have no business shooting a deer at 20 yds because of their skill level.

RE: 103yd with Bow & Arrow in the wind??
 

That is why they make bows that shoot 350 fps........like it or not......right or wrong. You don't think we really need WSSM to shoot a deer do ya? They make cars and motorcycles that go 150 mph for a reason. There will always be a market for those who want to push the envelope.

RE: 103yd with Bow & Arrow in the wind??
 

Hardcore,
I agree! Some people can shoot tight groups at long distances and yes they can kill at those distances. I still believe that every situation is different.And most of the time shouldn't be taken.I havea moviemy dad made for Ben Pearson back in the 60's. He shoots a Moose at 60 yards with a recurve loads another arrow and shoots it again at 70 yards. Both shots were perfect. Some guys just have talent and luck doesn't hurt either.

I have a hard time buying the distance, in a hard wind .... wind is so unpredictable ... plus the deer was moving ... coulda got a lucky shot, but I would be dead set against taking the shot under ANY circumstances ... but that's me

RE: 103yd with Bow & Arrow in the wind??
 

Oh I agree this wasn't a good shot with the conditions. Even if it was only 40 yards. I really don't think it was a 103 yard shot. It didn't take the arrow very long to get there.
