This is 50 yards free hand, the one in the lungs belongs to my buddy here from the forum, but he'll chime in if he wants too! :lol: :lol: His shot was free hand as well, just to keep my head from swelling too big! :lol: :lol:
Thanks buddy. :wink:

Ok, so you've shown your skills at 50, hows about stepping it up a notch and going 100? :lol:

Funny, I can't see that far anymore! I cut it off at 50 yards, and when the season draws near, i really stay 40 yards, and in. I would not shoot 50 yards at a deer in my woods.

Good group Dan!
I haven't had time to practice much off hand at any real distance but even though practice is so important you still have good days and bad.
The plan this coming year is to make more time for myself. So I'll be out there practicing with my bow and pellet rifle. Normally I'll shoot 10X more with my rifles to sharpen my skills.
Some people just like stepping on rakes

Good luck, have fun Don. As busy as life can be, you have to make time for yourself.

Dan, have you shot broadheads on your new set up . What Broadheads have you shot? I normally shot Slick Trick Mag 125. Seems like the Low Profile might struggle stabilizing the fixed blade head.
