I've been reading the posts and so far it 'seems' that most folks associate 3D with 1.) a competitive venue, and 2.) taking wide open shots in wide open areas. Lol, that sure doesn't sound like the 3D I'm used to. We mostly shoot for fun even if we use scorecards, with lots of ribbing and joking around. We might dare the shooter to take a head shot on a turkey target or a nose shot on a front-facing bear. Then there's the get down on one knee shot, shoot between the trees shot, etc. Of course it depends on the shoot's general 'atmosphere'...not interested in the IBO qualifier type of shoot...but essentially that foam shaped like a critter either gets treated like a critter (hunting mode) or like a toy to enjoy shooting at. I find that to be much more fun than watching arrows explode on rocks or disappearing through brush mounds never to be seen again. Sure, we lose/break a few but ALOT less than when I used to stump shoot. Even with judos, a rock is still a rock.
