First ever outdoor 3D tournament....
Young Buckmstr101 contacts me last night about a 3D tournament about an hour from me in VA. Get up this morning and decide to try it.
No preconceived notions......new territory. I find out I'm shooting hunter class......with targets to 40 yds. OK....
I don't remember more than 1 or 2 inside 25yds...lol....but it was as realistic as it gets. No known yardages.....hills, valleys, ravines......alligator....Hyena(sp?).....turkey, deer, bear, hogs.....you name it....we shot at it.
269.....tried every shot.....30 targets. I'm whooped.....but ready to try it agin, sometime.
Thanks, Arron for letting me know about this.....and we'll do it again, soon.

RE: First ever outdoor 3D tournament....
I shot my first ever 3D shoot in Texas the day after i got my new bow. The same class but it was out to 35 yds unmarked. I shot a 297 on 30 targets. Went back to next day to practice and shot 267.
I think my peep moved. Oh well, glad you had fun. It is great practice and very relaxing...

RE: First ever outdoor 3D tournament....
I didn't realize you had only shot indoors prior to this. I love outdoor shoots. They are what got me into 3d. It sounds like you hada good time. Be careful it can be addicting and you'll find yourself trying to find one every weekend if you're not careful.

RE: First ever outdoor 3D tournament....
The club I belong to in Maryland has one about every two weeks in the summer, its definitely addicting! We've got a ton of targets, we're getting a Raptor (Jurassic Park) from Rineharts soon, we've got towers for elevated shooting... I love 3d.
