Finally put a quiver on my Black Widow and had a few minutes to take some shots today. 20 yards, from the roof (about 12-15 feet off the ground). I pulled the first one a bit left but the next three dropped right in there. If you watch the video change it to 1080 HD for best viewing quality.

I talked to Milo over the phone and he gave me some great insight on shooting form. I have a couple things to work on but it's coming along!

Busted two nocks today. Busted one yesterday really well. Shooting a lot is hard on our targets too. :)

Nice shooting Brock! The target cracks me up. Looks like the work of a machine gun. That is a lot of shooting.

Gotta catch up on this thread .
Starting to feel like season is creeping up on us.
Had surgery on my hand the end of April and that set me back but finally feel like i'm getting back into the groove.
I chopped,sanded and fletched some turkey feathers from the bird i shot this year so would be pretty cool to shoot a deer with them.
Rick gave me some feathers from his bird so i did some up with those also.
Didn't too bad for my first time doing them.

Have been flinging alot of arrows the last few weeks, i did add 50 grain brass inserts on the front of my arrows so am at 200 grains up front. They are flying really good.
Feel real confident at 25 yards.
Been doing alot of shooting at 30 yds and doing pretty good.
It sure makes 15 and 20 seem alot easier.
This was my first shot at 30 today.
