    Keep in mind I haven't shot more than a few arrows period in the last 2-3 months, and those have been with broadheads on. I fletched some brand new arrows about a week ago and shot about a dozen shots last night. I shot well enough so I didn't bother tuning anything in and figured I'd shoot a practice round of 30 arrows and see where I end up. Here's the outcome.

    10,8,8
    10,9,7
    10x,9,9
    10x,10,9
    10x,9,8
    10x,10x,10
    10x,8,8
    10x,10x,9
    10x,10,10
    10x,10x,10
    Total - 281 with 12x

    I have no idea if this is good, bad, or somewhere in between. Overall I was pretty happy considering I know my bow isn't totally dialed in and I haven't shot in months. I definitely improved as time went on and with the exception of a few flyers, I was pretty much on.

    That's all I've got. :sheep:

    That's way better than the 220 I promised myself I'd get:huh: ... It's going to be above 0 tomorrow:nana: , so I'll try a practice round in the afternoon.

    I have no experience with this either, but I'd be pretty happy with that score too!

    Very impressive. I would have traded my 287 for your 281 to have the more of an X count like you have.

    Well, you smoked my practice round. I shot 265. :hail:

    I'd like to say that I got better the more I shot... but I didn't. I was consistantly inconsistant. I also did crummy at techno hunt. :cry: :cry:

    After all that shooting my shoulder/arm went from painful to screaming to mostly numb.
    :woot:
