    I started doing because I figured it would be great practice for hunting, and it is!

    Ive been getting into the competeing side of it even more though.

    Loads of fun and get to meet a lot of interesting charachters.

    Sh, I aint so good at spelling....

    I started out shooting 3D with my hunting gear... but it's addictive... now I look like this walking into the "summer" woods.

    Very cool.

    I got started last year and got wrapped up in the competition side of it.

    Still hunter class this year but will move to either MBR or MBO next spring. Figure it gives to an almost good excuse to buy some more cool looking gear.....lol.

    My kids dig it as well.

    It's another hook in the mouth! You'll find how very, very useful it is to shoot 3D during the year. But, I suppose the difficulty, which i call a challenge is the most fun. That's depending on the placement of the 3d targets. At T.A.Z. Archery in Woodstock, Il., Tim places his 20 station 3D targets in the most challenging locations. This year for example at his ASA 3D tournament, he had a mountain lion in the shadows of a tree. A standing black bear you had to shoot right past just a few inches over a pile of junk to hit the bears kill zone.

    Will be there this Saturday with my Mathews Conquest Triumph thats for sale

    I have realized that car insurance providers know the cars which are susceptible to accidents along with other risks. They also know what types of cars are given to higher risk as well as the higher risk they've got the higher the actual premium amount. Understanding the simple basics associated with car insurance will help you choose the right form of insurance policy that may take care of your family needs in case you become involved in any accident. Many thanks for sharing the ideas on the phorum.best wishes

    Getting my rig ready for another season of the Hunter class. I plan on being a little more serious about it this season. Going with more of a competition set up. I want to put my scores in the upper 190's and break 200 at least twice this year. Then move up a class for 2014.

    I try to get to one at least once a month it really helps me feel more confident when fall comes around and its the real deal and you have a trophy buck in front of you... 3D has helped me both with shooting and judging range definitely a good confidence builder and a lot of fun in the off season
