"The Official" Muzzy Shoot Thread...Cade's the youth Muzzy Champ!(new pix and vids!)

[Guru]

So it came down to the last target #14 red...Fred needed it to tie me up and force a shoot-off in "The chair"!

"The Chair" is where everyone gathers to watch all the tie-breakers...

Fred having some fun with Cade before shooting #14.  Cade was saying he wanted us to go to "the chair", I said thank buddy!..

I shot and just "ticked" the target, not enough to knock it down...then Fred shot...
 

We were tied 6-6, and headed to "the chair"...

ok curt...whats the name of the new hoyt recurve? it looks like a short version of the formula rx target riser:)

Keeping in mind of course that I ain't you and you ain't me and we ain't talkin. Rumor has it that there bow you don't see wont begin production in 2 months and definitely wont have ILF competion quality carbon foam limbs on it. Thats my story and I'm stickin to it.

When we got to the edge of the woods and within view of the shoot-off area...we could the battle for 1st and 2nd had also come to a shoot-off, and they were tied at 6 just like we were...we waited...

For shoot-off's it not sudden-death...we toss a coin, winner gets choice of first or second shot, but both shooters get an eqal amount of shots.

I won the toss and elected to shoot first. Even if I hit it, Fred would still get a chance to tie. It would go on like that till someone hit it, and the other didn't....

Waiting to shoot...

How it was all decided in "the chair"...
   

Absolutely awsome guy!

•  

This one was Fred's idea...1st for Cade, 3rd and 4th for me and Fred...
•  

Although I did have one bad round, and didn't get the chance to shoot in the recurve final for 1st place, there isn't a thing I'd change about how it all turned out....getting the chance to shoot with Fred was something I'll never forget!

Curt,

What a great time!

I've always heard about the Muzzy shoot.  Could you explain a bit more about how exactly it works?  Even with all your pictures, I don't think I fully understand.  The blocks are the "stumps"?  Just hitting them doesn't count?  What are the different colors and sizes for?

Fred is a member here on tradgang but I can't seam to remember his ID. It would be cool if someone would send him a link to check it this thread out. I'm sure he would enjoy it.

This was my first ever Muzzy shoot and will definitely by on the todo list every year from here on out.

My first "hero" shot on saturday!
 

An action shot.
 

Threading the needle! From my perspective sitting on the stump as required.
 

Here is a typical Muzzy target (still standing). Note the 2 arrows to the right.
 

Another typical "muzzy" shot.

No wonder the boy can shoot look who he's got for a coach.
 

Two of the nicest guys you'll ever meet waiting for their turn in "The Chair"
 

And one of the highlights of my weekend. Fred is one of the nicest guys you'll ever talk to and his wife Michelle puts on a mean Muzzy shoot too.

And an honorary member of Team Pink too!!

Well here's what Fred would do.............


 


Oh and I also picked up on the Dad in Fred aswell. This made me smile.
