Yea Cody originally said 60 to mock the famous Howard Hill feat, but unfortunately a lot of us don't have that kind of yardage, so I guess it's if you got it, do it.  If not, make do with what ya got.  

I'm ready for the next one!!  I'm gonna try and do a video for each one of mine.

I thought I would catch up on last week's shot.  I couldn't find a soda bottle, and since we are shooting for the cap anyway, I stuck an Amber Bock bottle in the old block target.  I was about an inch low.

I've been trying to get some shots worthy to post. Shot Greg's bow yesterday with some POC arrows from Wildcat Canyon.

Sorry you have to turn your head sideways to see this right. It looked better in person. I was on my knees on the deck at 20 yds. Got these shots in between the rain drops. Shot just over the tennis ball.

Wait a minute. That's just my set up.....

Here is my entry...

 

 

First shot low. I expected that.

Second shot was not too shabby!

I shot a round of 3D this morning so I'll have to wait to try Cody's matchstick challenge.  Not that the 3D is going to help me out on the shot, but I want to follow the "first shot of the day" rule.  Now if I can just find a match the size of a firelog...

Bona! Nice shooting! AND you got Greg to shoot too!!

I'm on the road folks,still trying to get a camera and computer to hold hands....this week is Cody's shot...the results already posted should count towards the 5th poster...Bona's post is #3 with a matchstick in it,unless someone else sees another...

This kind of shooting is fun and challenging. I'm glad you spoke up 2knives.

Just stumbled across this thread yesterday. This is gonna be fun. Here is my first attempt at the matchstick @ 30 challenge. 1st arrow is the lowest, 2nd arrow just above 1st and the 3rd was just high and left of the toothpick I substituted for the matchstick. To be honest I can't even see the toothpick at 30 yds. That is why I placed it right of the dot so at least I knew where it was. Can't wait for the next challenge. Paul<><

Scratch mine. I just done some reading further back on Codys challenge. I realized it wasn't a 3 shot try but only 2 shots. I had read earlier about the other challenges and noticed they were 3 shots and just assumed this one was too. Oh well I'll pay better attention next time. Good challenge Cody. Lets do the next one.

First shot missed the mark.  Second shot was pretty dang close.  I grabbed my bow, 2 arrows, and the camera to head out and take this one after the rain let up this morning.  I forgot my glove, and man it felt funny shooting without it.
