100 Yards!?!?!? I have never shot more than 40 and would think if you hit an 8X11 piece of paper at that range you would be more lucky than good.

I like the idea of off hand scoring as well, will try that and see how much worse I do.

well if you havent shot from 100 yards your missing all the fun, all you have to do is at about 15 to 20 feet above the target,,

auctually I read an article where a guy did just that he was able to hit the target but I dont think I would ever take a shot over 30 yards out hunting,,

not even sure i could hit a target at 20 yards today it is so wendy here, like 20 and 30 mph gusts, migh just go and see if the bucks are sheding their antlers yet , they still had them a week ago..

OK, that makes much more sense, my bad. Was gonna ask if you guys were shooting 100 yards straight down or something, He he.

Here I couldnt hit squat today either, same thing weather is blowing like crazy and were getting some rain with it to boot. I hope spring arrives soon.

Dnk: ain't they got no sand in Canada?? You takes a couple 3 or 4 one gallon zip locks, fill them 3/4 full of sand, then put them in old socks, and tie a knot in the end. Use the ones your toenails ruined, they will work fine. Then, you rest your xbow on them. Next you shoot a sighter or two, then go fotr the Gold. I score your target [from top left to right, then down] as: [9] [7] [0] [8] [8 maybe 7] for a total of 31/32. Granted, all were "dead meat" but you have really opened up the window for those "Robin Hoods on Skate boards" LOL Shame on you!!!
