I don't know how it is there but here they arent strict at all. Mo-Bowhnter used them all last year. I dont get that rule.[&:]
Our season starts next weekend in good ole Perryville,MO.

I think I'm set for the 27th. i just need to know about what time we are meeting. Then I need to get my setup together.
I do have somewhat of a problem. I'm hoping they don't pay attention to glue in points vs. screw in for hunter class.

In a way though, I just want to bring my open rig, and shoot young adult. >35yds. I'm honestly not too sure of my yardage judging skills. This will be my first outdoor 3d tourny. I'm chalking it up as a learning experience.

It's gonna sound like a myriad of excuses at first....but that's NOT my intention. I am really proud of how things ended up, today. 20 Target course.....no known yardages.
First of all....this was my 2nd ever 3D shoot (outdoors). It was snowing it's butt off....and cold! On top of that.....the first ten targets were ALL uphill shots....and the largest animal was a FOX!...lol
My first 6 targets resulted in the following scores: 8, 8, 8, 8, 10, 8. OK....I'm bummed...but I make a peep adjustment (twisted) and I continued. I ended up only dropping m=one more 8 for the rest of the course. I had a few 12's mixed in, also.
What made me proud of myself.....is I never got upset.
I ended up with 198....and left in 3rd place (dont know how I finished). I was pleased I didn't give up after a horrible start. THAT was a good lesson....and great experience.

Glad you had a good time, the snow and cold must have made it difficult!

Anyone around the triad of NC or south/central VA wanna join me?
Eden, NC.....20 targets....hunter class to 30 yds.
Supposed to snow, here. Tournament director told me they held one in the snow a few years ago....and it was a blast.

I guess it's around 1hr or maybe a little less. I went one way and came back another....and didn't time either.
Oh....it's less than 50 miles (from my office to the course).

Couple of Strutting turkeys (while the target is bigger than a fox....the scoring rings aren't)
couple of standing jakes (HATE these)
javelina
beaver
fox
You get the picture.
Ya know...there was a bear in the first ten....but it was some tough little targets.
All the animals on the "back 10" were full size critters. LOTS of fun.
