That looks like a Shrewhaven wolf. Something that might come out of Lobo Lair at about 4:30 am    :scared:

Interpretation: "Roger I'm going to chew you up and spit you out on the course Saturday"  

Roger, I think you, Greg and I will have to sit on the back deck after shooting Wednesday with a glass of ETL and talk about your strategy for Saturday. Ron looks like he's shooting pretty good, so that strategy session may take a while.

We can certainly sit and drink good whiskey,  but my strategy has never been deeper than shooting as many perfect arrows as I can that day.

Statisticians and odds makers would have us believe that the  outcome of some match ups is inevitable. Yet we still play the game.

I had a platoon Sergeant once who said "There may br people who want to kill you. MAKE  them do it,  don't let them "

The fine gentlemen at Black Widow sent me a care package, with the simple note "Good luck this weekend"

 

I will certainly be well dressed...   :bigsmyl:

WOW now the pressure is really on    :scared:  A little advice buddy, when you're shooting try not to think how bad you'll feel if you let em down.     :pray:

I was trying as hard as I could with my plain green glass Hill Style longbow and old 1960's Microflite arrow technology, but I just couldn't get my shooting up to Lobo's standards:

I'm glad I have a family commitment for the big shoot off day (surprise 60th anniversary for my parents), so I won't get embarrassed by the big 'wolf' dogs.  None the less, if I was going to shoot, I'd proudly wear this vintage shirt (which by the way I was wearing under my shirt when I killed my first turkey ever in 2000 with my Super Shrew Samurai-seen in my avatar):

"I'll even help you out by watching very closely when you shoot and pointing out the mistakes I see in your form. [nono] Now I hope that won't bother you, just consider yourself lucky to get free shooting lessons. [goldtooth] "

 And the mind games begin ! LOL, I hate to miss this spectator event, ill donate $50 on Ron as well... This young whipper snapper needs to be put in his place !
its me, against me.

This is the set up that I'll be using this weekend, Shrew Model-T   "Black Widow Exterminator"  with Carbon Express Predator arrows.

Well the warm-up match is complete. We had a great time and let's just say its going to be interesting on Saturday. Roger has a beautiful Black Widow bow with an Asbell grip and its a real shooter.

Because of the high stakes of this match (bragging rights of course), there is an independent third party individual making the trip and she will be the official scorer of the competition. I have to say, she was the official of last nights 'warm-up' outing and she was ruthless in her decisions and once her ruling was made, all participants left the target without a peep.

Roger did buy this individual dinner last night after the shoot, however in spite of such gratuitous bribery, I'm still confident that the scoring will be impeccable.   :readit:    ;)

I know Ron will be tough to beat, however Roger and Greg will make this very interesting. Good luck to all three of my Shrewhaven buddies!!!   :archer:    :archer2:

Those steaks look really good!! I'll bet that smell is drifting through the course it might be a bit distracting to both shooters and judges....   :bigsmyl:
Too many bows to list, and so many more I want to try!  Keep the wind in your face, and your broadheads sharp.

two requests.. take a pic of EVERY target, and be sure to make it interesting Ron.
