3.19 mile dog walk this morning
Then went and shot a 3d shoot. Hadn’t done one of those in years and I always estimate yardage then range to practice…man it was brutal! I was routinely guessing about 2-7 yards off all day!
40 targets from 20-88 yards. Everything from 60 and in I was very...
Woke up fatigued and should have done a rest day.

Heat some water upon the microwave for about 1-1:30 then place the wrapped shaft in the water to fully cover. Wait a minute or two and the wrap will peel off and very little residue mess to deal with.

I actually did something completely different this year when selecting what I was going to shoot. I have about five different shaft/insert combos (axis and fmj with regular and brass inserts, BE rampage) and shot each one through the chronograph and ran the numbers (KE and MO) to see which...

Congrats on the weight loss and hitting a new PR on BP!! Way to go!
I’m down 19# and totally understand how good of feeling it is to see weight come off!
220# on bench is an accomplishment! That’s a lot of weight considering it’s more than we weigh! Be proud of that and congrats again!
It's so difficult to know how strong and how much weight a person should be moving around that's still beneficial to their health and lifestyle?
I would do ( once per year) go for the 1k# lift club (bench press, squats, DL) then spend the rest of the year just being functional and injury free...

70 yards is along ways out! That pin doesn't settle on the spot long -- for me personally accuracy wise if I can keep all the arrows inside the center Hex @ 70 plus I'm tickled. More often that not that's not the case...but it sure makes those 30 yard shots a breeze
Glad to hear the glute is...

My 50 yard groups continue to improve. I’m certainly not a target shooter, but pleased with this group.
