Thank you Phil and Robby for another challenge! This shot was tougher than I expected. I’ve never practiced this shot before. I set my MER at 60 same as the cold bow challenge. Hit high and left. 2nd shot I moved up to 40 yards my 2/3 range and hit much better in the kill zone.
Day 2
Moved my MER back to 65 for this shot. First arrow hit high and outside. Moved up to the 2/3 range at 44 yards. Hit closer to center but still have much room for improvement! Also switched targets. I feel like I struggle a lot more shooting at dots rather than 3D.
Day 3
First shot at my MER 65 was left and a little low. This was a tough shot and felt awkward for sure. More pin movement than I’m used to. 2nd shot moved up to my 2/3 range at 44 and got the 12 ring
Day 4
Well my first shot from 65 was right in the money. Then I moved up to 44 and disappointingly hit high and right. Definitely need to get more consistent!
(Side note: I’ve had my Garmin Xero for 1 year now. I really like it but sometimes I experience some “ghosts in the machine”)
Day 5
Got my shots in just before dark! Probably my best round of the challenge so far. First arrow was at 64 MER. High 8 ring. 2nd shot moved up to 2/3 range 45. I felt my bow arm drop and hit way low. I gave myself a mulligan and shot one more arrow. High 12 ring
all about FOCUS.
(My vision was very blurry today. Still recovering from brain surgery. 1 more week I’ll be at 6 months post-op)
Shot #6
First shot was my MER at 65. I tried shooting regular nocks instead of nockturnals. Hit high out of the kill zone. Moved up to 2/3 range 44 yards and hit much better in the kill zone. Shot 2 groups of 2 standing at 65 to finish practice. Both groups looked just like the picture above. 1 good arrow and 1 high arrow. The high arrow in the first group was in the center on the 2nd group
frustrating
Shot #7
Very tough shot. I tried my MER at 65 yards. Hit about 6 inches right and 3 inches low of center. Still might have caught lungs or liver. 2nd shot at 2/3 range 44 barely found the 12 ring
very realistic shot scenario. Good tips to keep core tight and keep pulling on back wall.
Shot #8
Shots felt good today. First arrow from 65 MER on the left hit 12 ring. Second arrow from 2/3 44 yards hit a little right in the 8 ring. Really focused on the target and not my pin.
Shot #9
First shot at 65 was a few inches low. I tried to hold for 1 minute but I let down at about 50 seconds. Second shot at 44 I held for about 30 seconds before I started shaking. Good shots to practice!
Shot #10
Happy to finish out strong. I extended my MER to 75. Arrow on the right in the 8 ring. Second shot was from 2/3 range 50. Hit 8 ring again. Thank you Phil and Robby for hosting! Great challenge
