Title: was at a 3d tournament yesterday....(pic heavy)
Post by: saumensch on January 16, 2011, 02:56:00 PM: Hi,

yesterday i was at my second 3d Tournament.
Thought id share some pics of that traditional only event.
It were 120 participants divided in ranking groups like women, children, primitive, woodies etc. I made it to the 14th rank of 41 in my group (368 of 560 points) and our club trainer made it to the 3rd rank. Was alot of fun and good practice for longer or brush-hindererd shots and the possibility to shoot at "not so common animals".

the start-gathering:

the turkey was lucky in this case:

the special shot; hitting the fox meant minuspoint:

Post by: on January 17, 2011, 07:29:00 AM: Great pics....I am envious - an all trad shoot!
Some of those targets look like they are a loooooong shot. Must be the camera.
Title: Re: was at a 3d tournament yesterday....(pic heavy)
Post by: saumensch on January 17, 2011, 07:50:00 AM: not always the camera, the bison e.g. was about 65yards.

Post by: twitchstick on January 17, 2011, 10:48:00 AM: Looks fun! I wished I could have been there instead of the one I shoot saturday. It would have been nicer if I wasn't the only trad shooter but the temps were a rare 50 degree with lots of sun.
Title: Re: was at a 3d tournament yesterday....(pic heavy)
Post by: saumensch on January 17, 2011, 11:42:00 AM: actually most shoots round here are mostly trad. Some trad only and most with 70% trad minimum.
