Anyone interested in joining a few fellow members at a 3D Shoot this weekend? Myself mobow, Greg/MO, Kickin_Buck and who knows who else will be there. It will be held at the Alton VFW Farm outside of Alton, IL. Here is a link to the River City Bowhunters website for directions. http://rivercitybowhunters.com/Directions.php Just don't use the google link on the page, it doesn't take you to the right VFW!! Not sure if Kickin_buck will be able to shoot, he is a member of the club, and will probably be working. But he can still visit and socialize. Come on out and have some fun!!
Quite possibly. If I go chances are I will be shooting with MOmighty's dad and another guy we shoot and hunt with.
Yeah, I'm not gonna be able to make it.....it's somebodies birthday sunday and that sombodie's wife has other plans.....
I am looking forward to meeting up with you guys. I missed you the time you all shot our course, was in TN taking in a little R&R. I will be there for sure this Sunday. I will shoot, but don't know exactly what time I will be able to break away. If nothing else, I will have time to swap a few lies and shake hands.
It'll be interesting to see if I can put my rig back together in time, LOL... I was messing with my whole setup tonight and changed draw lengths about five times, tried some new arrows and was trying to settle on which release I'm going to use (wrist caliper, thumb release or hinge). I think I'm putting everything back the way it was tomorrow.
LOL...yeah, those are pretty kick arse........Good luck this weekend to all you guys.......I'll catch ya on the next one......Festus maybe....
Let's say I'd "like" to take another one home, LOL! I shot my first shoot of the year last weekend, and it started off UGLY... REAL ugly. I got back on track the last half and only finished six points off the podium at the finish, but I'll need a LOT better start this time. Almost every miss was yardage-related; shooting's fine. I'll try to work on my yardage judging a bit if I can ... and I need to get home tonight and set my bow back where I've got some confidence in it after tinkering with about five different setups last night. The main thing is to go up and have fun with some friends.
The google link does take you to the correct VFW farm. It is a little confusing because most people think we are located in either Alton or Godfrey, which is correct, but the farm has a Brighton address.
Me and a few of the Group will be there bright and early sunday morning what time are you guys planning on showing up kickin buck I now you will be there bright and early hopefully you can walk through with us and have a good time like at the BSA shoot a couple years ago
Greg is driving up from Jackson, MO in the morning and meeting at my house. We prolly won't get there till 9:00-9:30ish.
Well didn't get the turnout of BH.com members that talked about showin up. It was me Greg/MO, kickin_buck and I heard ChrisA was there earlier in the morning. I really had some rust with distance judging the first 10 targets or so. Way too many low 5's. Once I got the distances figured out a little better the 10's and a few 12's starting showing up with regularity. But the first shoot of the year showed in my final score of 367 out of 400. I need to get out in the backyard and shoot more from different distances instead of my 20 yard shot in the basement. With the improving weather lately that shouldn't be a problem.
