We have a guy around here like that. Monday night was first night of league, he shot a 300 54X on the first shoot. I was looking at the score board from last year, he was 300's across the board with 50+ x's on every week. Im a decent shot for my time shooting and considering who im around, but its humbling to shoot with guys like that. All you can do is watch, listen, and learn.

I was talking to a coach friend of mine and he shoots in Providence.Chance makes his way up to their indoor range every once in a while and my friend watched him shoot OVER 100 PERFECT shots in a row.Of course they were all x's but this is coming from a level IV instructor that was watching HIM,not the x count and he was amazed.
With all this tech talk even the nerds are scratching their heads.

I wonder if the indians badgered each other on the internet back in the day. Telling one man he should have never taken that shot...or it was not right to kill off a horse...or spear a buffalo...
However the indians and white man may have been the reason we almost made the Bison Extinct. [8D]

LRacher is a full blown idiot! This is the first time in my five years that I have jumped on someone but after reading all of his posts this dude needs to sack up, grow up, learning to spell, and move onto some other site! I make a stand on a banning!

Bowhunting is a LOT of fun. Man it really is I tell ya! Everyone should try it.

Several points.
I'm not defending LRarcher because if the name calling, profanities don't cease, he won't be here long.
That said, when I went on my elk hunt, the guy who went with me was a Hoyt dealer and had a 40 target 3D course. Prior to the hunt we'd send Muzzy tipped Beman Trophy Hunters into the 12 ring of a Elk target at 75 yards. We didn't have a pin, we used the housing around our pins for 75 yards.
I'm confident with a pin, I could inconsistently hit a 12 oz can at 100 yards. I'm confident alot of us could but one thing I didn't notice in this post, I may have overlooked it, is the pin configuration. There is no way in hell in a fixed pin Cobra site that there is a 100 yard pin with let's say a 20 yard pin. Maybe irrelevant to the thread. I'm tired, I didn't read it all.
That said, keep it civil guys and to sum up,
Bowhunting is a LOT of fun. Man it really is I tell ya! Everyone should try it.
