Yep - I have done 3D sporadically over the last several years, with this last season being my first where I was serious about it. I am very proud of my progress over the last part of the season, I started the season as a high 260's shooter, and ended up as a low to mid 290's shooter. At my local shoots, we only score X's as tiebrakers- 10x, so anything in the 290's is very good in my opinion. I shot the hunter class with my Patriot, sorry no pics but you know what one looks like.

I plan for 2005/2006 season to shoot spots at 2x locations, Jim Desparts new shop (possibly going to get some coaching this winter from him), and my local club. I will be using my Constitution when it gets here for this, sorry no pics yet.

I will also be shooting in as much national and local 3D as I can next year.My real passion and interestfor competitive archery is 3D. I plan to shoot the 2nd leg of the National Triple Crown in McKean next June, the IBO State Championship for NY at Active Bowhunters in May,the PA IBO State Championship at Glendale in June, and of course the Worlds in on WV. I plan to shoot local competition in either MBR, or Open, and then the IBO shoots in HC.

Open Class setup:
06' Constitution 70/29.5" Black Marble
ANTS
Black Eagle 42mm .50 diopter
31.5" doinker carbon elite
GKF TKO Target w/ blade
(will post pics as soon as the bow gets here, all the accessories are waiting to be mounted on it)

HC Setup:
06' Constitution 70/29.5 Black Marble
Hogg-IT
GKF TKO Target w/ Blade
12" AEP

Will be shooting Pro 22's out of both setups.

Hey Rick

I shot HC as well the past couple years. I am really thinking about the move up to AHC and possibly MBR for IBO this year.

I missed last years McKean shootdue to a shoulder injury. I will be at Mckean this year though. Maybe we will run into one another?

Will you or any one else here be shooting the IBO Indoor Worlds? Its a blast. I shot well at last years indoor worldsexcept for two badshots.....I ended up with 400 18X. I hit a 5 on a gimmie 17 yard hog (first shot of the shoot) and a 27 yard gobbling turkey. I shot with pdq5oh (Phil) from this forum last year.

It is a humbling experience pissing away 18x's at a national shoot

I never took Rack for a paper punching spottie

Rack my high X count is only 49 on an NFAA 5 spot target face. I also use my 3D setup for spots.

Fine shooting Rack.
