Well the first 3D Shoot is in the books for the guys at Echo Valley Archers. As always it was a great shoot, they have added a lot this year to the range. In talking with some of the members they even have a theme this year. They call it the “Old Barn Yard”. Hands down the nicest indoor 3D range I have ever shot.
As for my shooting I shot well. I shot a 472 out of a possible 500 and that was good for 6th place out of 80 shooters in the Bowhunter class. You can find a full list of results at the the EVA website. My only goal is to try and shoot better than I did the last time. It doesn’t always work out that way. Also I had a goal to not score a 5 on a target, I was able to accomplish that. I must admit I got lucky a few times, the moving targets come to mind!
Years ago I when I first started shooting 3D Archery, my goal was to not miss a target. Really for me it’s about becoming a better shooter. It gives me great confidence when I’m hunting knowing I put thousands of shots threw my bow and that no matter what happens I’m ready to make a clean shot when it is presented.
Echo Valley Archers next shoot is February 2nd & 3rd 2013, to find a shoot near you, check out 3DShoot.com
