Tell ya what. We can make a deal right now that if you win anything I’ll slip you a $20 and you can have it shipped to me. Makes us both winners!

Don’t bring @Bill V in to this. Guy had an MER of 100 yards and aced it. I am not worthy of his presence!!

I gotta say I think all the changes this year were a win, nice work Rokslide staff. I jumped in here just to check the banter and couldn’t believe the competition was already wrapped up, love how much faster this year went!

Haha, just doing my job. I'm already figuring out how I can get better for next year.

Just don't throw out your dominant typing finger on Sunday evening. Once is an accident, twice is a pattern!

Super interesting. Thanks for entertaining.

How many years have you been shooting compound?

Have you had any regressive episodes?

Alright here is the 2024 stats. I put this together right as I was leaving work so if I find mistakes, I will fix them and update things.




2023 for comparison.

Thanks for doing this Corb

First thing that jumps out at me (for compounds simple average) is that with the five day challenge last year we had 68% hits in the vitals and this year going to three arrow we had 76%.

Not totally direct comparisons because last year‘s had field points mixed in it

Average two years together and shooters are missing about 30% cold bow shots on any given day, with an average MER of about 55 yards.

What does everyone think about that? Are we being realistic about our MERs. Should we be 100% to really claim it as our MER?
