    Default First for everything.

    I do not intend this as "bragging" but I just did something pretty freaking cool. This is a first for me. I went out into my yard to practice with my brand new Mathew's Z7 bow. My first three shots at 20 yards were in a 1 3/4" group. That is pretty good shooting with a new bow that you are not accustomed to. The kicker is that the third shot "Robin Hooded" the second arrow. This is not because I'm so good. The credit goes to this freaking awsome bow. I am keeping the two permanently joined arrows for display at our hunting camp. This bow is just scary accurate. The deer and hogs should be scared of it too! Best.

    Sweet shooting Glock, I need to drag out my old Bear and get it tuned up. I tried to get into bow hunting and spent an arm and a leg on equipment. I had to custom order my bow due to my gorilla frame (draw length) never really got it set up right. It is dusty and set up for fishing as it is!

    Yea, at 6-7 dollars a pop they are a little too accurate to make groupings. I had to start using multiple targets.

    New bow, Lesson learned. Multiple targets for me from now on. I thought the "Robbin hood" was cool but I can see where it can get expensive. Yall take care.

    Cool story. When I was a boy scout on my first summer camp (probably around 11 or 12 yrs old) I went to the archery range every day for 3 or 4 hours. I never had any archery training before, and my parents couldn't afford my own bow, so I went to practice. Near the end of the week, one of my fellow scouts decided to join me. He was getting tired of watching me shoot bulls eyes and near bulls eyes. So he decided to claim his next shot and said it would be a bulls eye. When he shot it, it went straight to the ground, then skirted across the ground, hit a rock and bounced up into the dead center of the target. Of course, I said "If you did that on purpose, do it again." Needless to say, the most lucky shot I have ever seen.
