How about a "quick" shot at 50 yards (standing)? Draw, anchor, shoot, all within 5 seconds.

10mph cross wind, just hiked two miles with weight and dusk. I started counting as I drew and released at three one thousand. This isn't all that close to the center but I'm not really that bummed either. Keep em coming.

if this stays up till sat, i'll fling my first shot at 50..at the range.

to do this at my home, i'll have to put my target in the vietmamese lady's backyard..50 yards is probably her porch!

all my shots are less than five seconds..hahah.

I didn't take a pic as I don't know how to put a pic on here anyway, but in 3 seconds at 50 yds I shot 2 inches low left. shoulda stopped there as my groups went to dung after that.

You guys posting video clips rock! Are there any restrictions on size with video? Good thing my shooting skills are better than the puter skills. I truly suck at the tec stuff. Can I load one from my IPad? :geek:

Buglemaster... How I do it is as follows. Go to you tube and if you don't already, create an account. Record your video by whatever means you have and put it on the desktop on our computer. Now, log into you tube and click "upload".. It's at the top of the screen, about 2/3 to the right. Then, you'll click "select files to upload" in the middle of the screen. Click "desktop" on the left of your screen. Scroll down on the right till you see the file you placed on your desktop. It takes anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes (depending on the size of the file) to upload. Once you tube sais "your file is uploaded and can be viewed at ________________________", click that and you'll see your video on you tube. Now, on the top of the screen while viewing the video, copy everything after "v=". Got the the Elknut forum, and as you'll see on top of where you normally type, it has a youtube tab. Click that and paste what you copied from the youtube link (everything after the v=) in between the inside two brackets that appear in the youtube link. Then, click preview on the bottom of where you're typing and you should see your video embedded in the post.. Hope this helps. RJ

Anyone other than me ever missed a stupid blue grouse at 4 yds? Mabe not these seasoned bow hunters right here, but my buddie & I both lost a $10 arrow apiece a few years back. Had no idea what pin to use. I do now. That's not my pick for a cold shot, but worth checking into...OK, here we go . Lets shoot the gap & say 35 yds off the ol keister. Yep, sitting flat on your eh, eh, Azzeroo. Anybody ever get surprised while taking a breather?
