My first 3D Tournament (pics)
« on: November 21, 2010, 01:13:00 PM »
Hello,

just wanted to share some pics of my first 3D Tournament yesterday. Was a great experience with many nice people and a beautiful setting.
We shot at 28 targets from Rats to Bears and had a great time. In the end i was not good enough to make it to the best ones (rank 40, 157 participants) but that doesnt matter.

My form:
     


The bison shot was 80 yards, only one of our group made a hit:
     

The Odysseus shot (targets are the birds in the background):
     


The Yote:
     

Our best group result, the black bear:
   

The Grizzley became an archer himself    ;)  :
   

Final pic of our whole group:
   

Thanks for looking.

A good time is what it's all about.......shooting or hunting.   :thumbsup:
