cold shot

[Boarhead]

Shot the #60 pound Howatt Hunter I got from Brock a little today..the cold shot was on the money the upper 2 not bad either at 18 yards.
When I go from it to my #47 pound bow it feels like holding a feather. Lol

Cold arrow on a hot and muggy day, I stepped it at 27 yards.

Right after I shot another arrow, I looked over and saw I had company in the field.

I didn't see mama but the twins were not too frightened of me.

Today's from 18.

I shot pretty well in the first few arrows, then started to get a little loose. An issue I have that I feel causes most of my inconsistency is a slight alignment issue with my bow arm. It's like a slight collapse in my bow arm (left arm) collapsing inward, and it leads to some left-right issues and a lack of stability at full draw/anchor. I drew a few times and let down, paying attention to my bow arm. Then sent several consecutive into this spot.

Busy week in the pizza joint. Friday night about 11pm or so I grabbed the bow and headed to the yard. First group at 25. Felt really good to shoot well after a little time away from shooting. Pretty much shot all day today with breaks for grass mowing and other chores. Overalls pretty good. Shot some Snuffers too. May have to poke a deer with one of them this year.

My cold arrow from 30 yesterday was a little high and outside.

Redeemed myself on the next one.

More hunting practical cold shot today. 16 yards. That'll do.

Shot a bunch today. Some were not very good, so I just kept shooting, trying to figure out why my shots were less than predictable once I started to fatigue. To me, less than ideal shots due to fatigue are similar to shots at game. I want my “bad shots” to be still pretty darn good. Finally had the breakthrough I was hoping for and found a little trick that straightened me right up. Anyone that has shot much knows, those little nuances that keep you in the kill zone under stress are absolutely priceless! Not really any point in describing it, what works for me won’t work for the next guy... but it’s mine and I plan to keep it. Rediscovering or discovering these little gems are just fantastic for one’s confidence.

Sharpened up a couple of Snuffers today too. They fly great out of both bows I hope to hunt with this season.

Came home from lunch service, grabbed my bow and stepped up to 30 yards being conscious of my re-discovery of last night. Shot all four arrows in my quiver and was quite happy with the results... and no, I was not shooting at the coyote. . I shot 75-100 arrows and had none I’d label “bad”. In my mind I was more accurate 25 years ago, but logically I doubt that’s the case. For certain, I’m more consistent day to day than I was “in the good old days”. Without a doubt, having an aiming system is far superior to simply concentrating on what you want to hit.

21 yards today. I'm chomping at the bit to do this for real.

I had one arrow get away from me today, hit high-back in the "8" on the bag target. The rest were really good today.

 

[Creamer]

30 yards cold yesterday. Good line, a bit low.

Next shot was more hunting applicable, 18 yards.

He ducked the string, good shot.

He ducked the string, good shot.

You can probably tell by the holes in the deer bag that I try really hard to keep the arrows low. Twitchy bastards are going to react and I look at a center mass hit on the target like it's too high on a live critter.

 

[Boarhead]

First 2 shots this morning at 23 yards shooting 190 grain simmons treeshark and 190 grain simmons interceptor. They both fly really good.

 

[Chancegriffis]

I did some shooting today. These were my best groups at 38 on the left and 45 yards on the right. Buddy told me to hit the over spray above the circle on the right picture. Not too shabby considering I haven’t shot since mid July lol

My Saturday morning cold shot...

So I finally got a shot at the groundhog. I snuck to within 26 yards (stepped it after), the shot felt great but sailed just a HAIR over his back...and the Stinger went right into the concrete edgers by the shed behind him.

Send it to Magnus and they will send you a new one.
