Default 3D shoot tonight..

Tonight we had a 3d/spot shoot at the shop. I'm not as good at dots so I opted out for that but I was game on for 3D. I ended up comming in 5th behind a semi pro for Mathews, who got first. I should have had a solid 3rd but I screwed it up in the last round and actually shot down for that round. I was pleased, with taking 5th out of 30 some odd shooters with a borrowed scope and borrowed, overpined arrows. I should be in buisness next week though. I have a new scope, arrows and spring steel headed my way now. I've got room to improve, but I'm getting ready to start working with Nathan a little (the Mathews guy). He's the best shooter I've seen in person, by far.


Here's some pictures I got for the night.


Some 3D shooters:




Me, thought it was a cool picture:



Nathan Winters, (Mathews guy)



3D shooters:



Dot shooters:




My Boss, shooting spots.






This guy is a machine. I've seen him shoot 300 52x's on a 5spot and a 300 20 on a Vegas face, 30 arrows.

No No No, not 30 pros. Just one "Pro" was there.

Congrats, Matt. Nice looking range, too.

We usually have around 30 in our indoor shoots, too. You did good.

One thing I noticed.......almost everyone is shooting thumb releases (or BT). There's something to them, I guess.

Yeah Jeff, it's the way to go. Once you get up into the Pro rankings, it's about a split, as to what the pro's are shooting. I'd say more are shooting BT instead of Thumb, but that's just a guess. Nathan, the guy in the picture, shoots an ST-3, and it's set HAIRY! Somehow he still pulls on it though.

When are we going to shoot?
