Pennsylvania is beautiful.

 Where I`m at, the woods wont look like that `till mid April.

You remind me of my pops...if you would have known him, you would surely take that as a compliment.

Those arrows sure look like a perfect flying streak from the angle I had.

Happy trails George D. Stout.  :thumbsup:

That's the Necedah with the 450+ skinny string on it. I shoots pretty fast, but it's quiet in the hand.  The silencers in that string are of B-50 dacron...stuck between the center strands.

It was forty-seven steps to the stump, but my steps are just a tad over 27/28 inches, so it was close to that range.  I just guestimate the distance anyway since I don't gap until I get to 55/60 yards.

I'd say that was a tad longer than 35. Wow, I'd have emptied my quiver and broke or lost half the arrows before I could have hit that... Great shooting man!

George,
I never saw you participate in any of the  "First Shot of the Day"  challenges.  If we start that up again are you game?

If I tried to shoot 35 yards here today, I couldn't see my arrow, much less find it...blizzard conditions...yuck! I'd trade you for your blustery, George.

Nice shooting, though, especially in the wind. The last actual stump I shot last fall turned out to be oak. You know, they don't soften up much! My arrow bounced back about 10 yards and I never did find the nock again! No damage to the arrow though. Those Beman ICS Bowhunters are tough!

Another 2-3 months and I'll be able to go stumping without losing arrows in the snow    :(

Thanks for the video, George.

Nice shootin', George. I subscribed to your videos on youtube. I also posted a comment on there and voted on your clip.

Good job.    :thumbsup:
