Well today,I picked up my bow and could not stop shooting. So I just stopped and if I had to guess how many i shot it would between 400-500 arrows. So that is what brings up my question. What is most amount of arrows you have shot in a day?

Over 1000

Don't know the number, but way too many.

I have shot double field rounds plus practice, and that would be a tad over 250 I would say. If you are shooting 1000 arrows in one day, you are just flingin' 700 of them 8^). Shooting an arrow every minute for ten straight hours would only be 600. And that would be not stopping for lunch or pee break. You must be using that 5 hour energy drink or something.

over 1000???

Were you trying to set a record? :eek:

My max has only been 250 shot in a day from a 55# bow. These days I get pooped when I shoot 100.

It's heck getting old. :(

Well son, that explains it.

However, you may want to cut back to 850 and make more selective shots. Glad to see you young folks into traditional archery. Shoot as many as you like.

I dont normally shoot that many, my uncle has a bow shop and sometimes ill go there and shoot all day.

When i took up trad archery 3 months ago i would shoot 350-400 arrows everyday. I found myself not concentrating at all so now i shoot 40-50 quality shots and my groups have gotten really tight.

No more than 150 or so. That's not often, either. I've got a 60-100 shot/day habit, currently.

ATAR last weekend and about 200 shots. Small fry to some of you guys!

I'm going to shoot two 3D's this weekend.One on Sat in Timmins Ont.(Canada) and the next day in my area of New Liskard (2 hours from Timmins).
I might go two to three days sometimes without shooting an arrow, due to a bummed shoulder but when things are feeling good it could be 100 more or less depennding on the arm.
The only reason I mention the 3D's is cause my 14 year old daughter is coming to the one in Timmins(to take pics) but her longbow is in the mail and my 10 year old son is going to shoot with me in Liskard the next day(with an old Bear fiberglass).Trust me if it was not for the kids I would not shoot that many arrows in two days .Reason one is may shoulder will hurt and I have a lot of block to lay and number two is I can't afford all the arrows I'm about to lose

Don't know. I know that I shot over 300 already with the compound, but I think somewhere around 250 with the trad bow would probably be tops. Just not sure.

13,752 . . . . I think. Maybe not. I lost count after 25. It sure SEEMED like 13,000 or more.

Russ Hogoerhyde was often known to shoot a 1000 arrows in a day. It helped him to win several national tournaments...

Ragnarok Forge · « **Reply #18 on:** July 17, 2009, 02:12:00 AM »

Right now I am shooting 100 to 150 every day after work. I just got a new longbow after 20 years of compound hunting and I am working on form to be ready for hunting season.

The most shot, 300 in one day.
