It happened today.........Beat at my own game.

Today we went to a local 3-D Ken T.[KAT on here] and my wife who has only been shooting off and on for 2 years or so. Ken shot pretty good as always, and me.......I shot like a bum,
Actually I was pretty proud of her. I set her up with a 14" Morrison ILF with Black Max limbs, 25#@25" and it fits her well. As bad as I shot it was still a great morning.

My wife out shoots me when we cold shoot .
Most every time her first arrow is on the mark .
The only way I out shoot her is after a few arrows and she starts to get tired .
But like she says " it's the first arrow that counts . "

I just knew she has been holding back when we shoot at Jeffs' so as not to embarass us old guys.

Ron,
I went by Pine Tree on my way to Meco this morning. I wish I had known they were having a shoot because I would have stopped to say hello.

You predicted your own defeat the day I picked up the bow.

By the by, she only out-shot you if she shot from the same stakes. See way too many shoots with "woman's" stakes. Ridiculous.

You are so lucky to have a wife who will shoot with you. Years ago I tried to get my wife interested. Her reply was "If you don't make me go to the archery range, I won't make you go to the mall". I figured that was a pretty good deal, all things considered.
