Rating Your Shooting Ability

RE: Rating Your Shooting Ability
This is hard to judge. I hit what I shoot at usually. I've never really shot any sort of competition. Only shot with other people a few times and seemed to have faired as good as them. I know when I shoot at an animal I've got about as much confidence as one can have, so I checked above average. Honestly though I think the shots I take at animals are very easy shots, which is easy to make onesself confident.

I say I am average. This includes both bow and gun.
I can drill bullseyes in my backyard all day, at skeet shoots that my company has between locationsI am always in the top 3 out of 25 to 30 people.
I just enjoy shooting and practice often.

I would have to qualify myself as avereage. I'm not near as good as I used to be but I think that's what happens when I got older and quit taking it so seriously. But I can live with that.

I picked average, never have shot any tournaments or anything. I shoot in the back yard at the house an over at other houses. I think it is a long way from tournament shooting to shooting a whitetailfrom a tree an dealing with all the decisions to make itall click.

Twenty years ago I would say I was Expert or even World class and could split arrows regularly. Age and a worn out arm do to medical reasonshave dropped me to an average shooter. I now have to use a croosbow because I can no longer hold a compound. But inmy hayday I was a very good shooter.

I went with very good, Ive never robinhooded an arrow or done any archery leagues. Just practiced in my backyard whenever I get the itch to shoot. Last weekend I did my first archery tourny. Pop-up shoot, took 2nd on saturday with a score of 208/240 and 1st on sunday with a score of 198/240. Sundays course was much more difficult and spread out. On the runner buck I shot averaged 3 out of 4 shots as 12pts (smallest circle) Score could have been better had they not had a 36 1/2 yd shot, my pins are 20,30,40,50 and 60, so a little guess work was required. On a 3-D shoot being able to take my time Im sure I could easily score near perfect score, but notas easy with 10 seconds to aim/shoot/reload/watch for next target.
