3 Under Doe Lope
« on: August 23, 2008, 05:19:00 PM »
I tried 3 under this summer after a coaching session with Rod Jenkins. After using it for a week, I decided it was for me. Finally got a chance to put it to the test under pressure last week. Can't wait to try it on the local whitetails.

I have been shooting 3 under for 6 or 7 years now. Taught my wife that way.

Congrats on the "horn".

Denny, I've been a 3 under shooter since the late '70's... I like it too !!!

Congrats on the 'lope... How far was she, hit her where you wanted ?  How heavy is your bow these days?

I had been shooting split for about two years now and just the other day i was getting very unhappy with my groups.  So with deer season just over a month away i decided to try three under.  I was dropping arrows in the sweet spot one after another.  Sweet lope by the way. Congrats  :thumbsup:

Congratulations on the doe. I started shooting 3 under a few years ago and have been much more consistent. Wait till you have been shooting 3 uncer for a year or so and try just 1 shot shooting split finger, it will feel like a stranger.

Congrats on the Antelope, Denny.  Where were you hunting?

I just made it home from South Dakota this morning. Did I mention SD is full of Antelope and Mule deer... LOL

I took this pic and then picked up my longbow. I should have waited until she was closer but didn't want trying to take a picture to ruin a chance on any antelope. She had kid's with her so I let her walk. Great fun last week.

Denny,

Congrats on the 'Lope!  I've switched to 3-under, too, and I've found I'm much more consistent with it than with split fingers.  Are you sure you shot that "lope, or did you scare her with your chrome dome/goatee look?    ;)    :)
