cold shot

I think it's time for a new deer target. you've killed that one to death.R&W targets. high quality, fair price. replacement vitals or mid sections available for all their targets.
I'll look into those. I just ordered about a dozen large printed target "sheets" I can pin on my big range bag. The deer versions are like 40"x28". That will get me by for a while.

Just got this in email...not bad for $89. Shipping is probably the bitch.

my first legitimate cold shot in a while. no warm up pulls. grabbed old back up bow (new bow got epoxied yesterday) and an arrow, walked out into yard, braced bow, nocked arrow shot deer from 21yards.
If you don't mine, I'm trying to bask in the glory of making a good shot, here. Nancy, Nancy, Nancy. It's always Nancy. Ya know, nobody really likes her much, Geezer.

Good shooting!
I need to put strings on my compound if I’m gonna hunt with it. Can’t bring myself to order them. Mason went through a bunch of arrows last fall, I did not so he has stripped the perfectly good fletching from my leftovers to make them match his. So now I have no proper arrows for my string-needing compound. And like the string, I currently lack the ambition to order more.
Fortunately, I have plenty of arrows for my trad bows and I’m shooting them better than I have in decades. I may force myself into elitism yet again. But I do have a couple crossbows ready to roll too.

I’ve been shooting more regularly lately. Adjusted my brace height a couple weeks ago and finally got around to resetting my nock point. I also ditched the clicker / draw-check I was using. I found that it just seemed to be creating a distraction for me. I’ve also been shooting with just 2 fingers instead of 3... seems more comfortable.
What is it with you trad guys? Spend all your money on bows and arraws and can’t afford the target?
Nice shooting JB....

Ha! I know man... It's pathetic! I really need some new targets BAD. But for some reason it's always the very last thing on my priority list.What is it with you trad guys? Spend all your money on bows and arraws and can’t afford the target?

Didn’t really do a cold shot today. Mason and I shot this afternoon and I shot a few more groups tonight when I got home from the shop. I shot about as well as I ever have today. Tonight was a repeat of this afternoon. Im sure it will fall apart before season. Here are groups from 20,30 and 40 yards respectively.

Oops, the 20 yard group is on the bottom. Wish I could do that from 40!
cold shot with new bow and brand new string I made this afternoon. this is as quiet a bow as I've made. we're getting along a little better today. short, quality round of practice today.
