2020 Cold Bow Challenge Question/Comment Thread

[bsnedeker]

I just took my shot for the day in anticipation! I can't wait for this thing to launch!

 

[Gorp2007]

One shot just in case. Here's hoping nothing deteriorates any further!

Dusted off the bow and shot for the first time this year. 60 yards seemed to be pushing it a bit for how rusty I am right now. If I was headed out for a hunt today I would feel confident at 55 so that will be my MER.

Got everything feeling good and this was the last two shots at 55 yds, one FP and one BH. I painted the best medium-sized animal lungs I could on there.

@Rob McConnell Thanks!

Dang. So windy today. Taking my bow to Scheels to have my peep turned now.

Man, I love shooting my bow.

Just took my shot for the day. Daily PT completed here at the FD took my shot @ 50 with a cutthroat pretty happy with it!

OK guys, it’s 3 PM mountain time. I wish I had an answer for you, but I’m still waiting on the “unknown variable” so if you want to shoot more than one arrow today and start again tomorrow that’s fine. I don’t think there’s no way in the world all 200 slots will be taken on the first day.

But as for me, I’ve already fired my one early today and I’m gonna hold onto it for a few more hours before I shoot anymore to see if this opens. Sorry! You’ll understand once I open the thread.

Holding on as well winds are 10 gusting 15 but the next 2 days are rain and high winds so they're gonna be true to the spirit of the thread.

I thought about waiting, but kinda like testing my shot in the wind. Haven’t shot my recurve outside enough to know how much it is going to be affected by wind. Turned out just ok today. I need to start my list of things to get at scheels

Think I'm just going to "sit" on my target for a few hours to keep it real. Might even do it without water and too few layers to really replicate CO archery bucks.

“Without water“ I get it!

Yes hold on to your arrow a couple more hours. That’s what I’m doing.

I'm going turkey hunting in the morning, so I'll just hope things don't fill up too quickly.

 

[Ucsdryder]

Lol we have plenty of time to shoot. What’s the big rush?

 

[doverpack12]

Rough day for a startup if it happens. Took my shot in more wind than I like to shoot with. Arrow slipped down wind a little but still fell within my designated kill zone.

you should be good.

Do you have to qualify by posting an arrow or just by Being one of the first 200 to say “I’m in”

You have to post. That’s your “entry“ into the challenge. Then it’s up to you to finish the other four arrows before the challenge closes. Most guys shoot five days in a row, but some don’t.

And for those who haven’t read the rules, remember you just edit your original post so all five of your arrows appear in the same post. Please don’t be that guy that goes in and creates five posts and we have to PM him to fix it, ha ha ha ha.

Ya, I shot a bunch in the wind when I got home with the wife. We are rusty. Ready to start in the morning though.

Scheels was strange. Odd times we are living in.

Throw a trail cam on your target. Go eat. Purify some water from down in the valley and come back
