Today's shot will be elevated from 21 yards. If you cannot get safely elevated, then shooting from the ground is OK. Hope everyone has a safe and blessed day.

Good shot Frank. I shot off the bank along my range. I was to lazy to flip the deer around so shot quartering to. Thanks for the call John. Only 1 1/2 weeks to Denton. Can't wait.

Thanks guys. I was surprised that John had FS posted so early. Pretty sure it was before 6:00am. It was breaking daylight when I shot so I had to use the flash. I wanted to shoot early today because it's suppose to get hot. Jim that's a nice shot you made to.

I was hoping to duplicate yesterdays shooting, but it just didn't work out....Ha!Ha!

Shot elevated at 21 yards, not too bad, I think I would have gotten what I was aiming at.

Everyone have a great week and great shooting fellows.

Bow Hickory that I made

Arrow POC that I made earlier this year.

First shot from the ground at 21 Yards using my 66 inch Martin Victory in #45. What a great bow this is! I wish Martin still made it because I would like one 10 pounds lighter. Resuly was high about 4 inches.

Thanks for the call NLB! I also just shot from the ground. Shooting my refinished “Howatt Project” for the first time. I wasn’t sure which arrow would be the best for this bow so I shot all 3 of them. The blue fletch was the first arrow, followed by the green fletch and the orange fletch. Looks like all 3 will work. Bow is a 1979 Ventura, 66”-45#. Nice shooting you guys and have a good rest of your day. Lance

Shot as called from 10' of elevation. Windage was good but elevation was a bit high.

Thanks for the call Big John!

1st shots in about a month for me. As called from the backyard ladder stand at dusk. #1 is the white and a quick follow up did the job.

Nice shooting everyone, Looks like that Howatt likes you Lance.

Thanks for the call Big John

No shot today, rode a john deere all day! I really enjoy FS so I’ll still say hello.

Nice shooting everbody! Work days have me up early for the three S's...then I usually post the shot just before walking out the door, sometime around 0500 Eastern time. Always nice to see folks enjoy the thread, and bantering back and forth like old friends around the campfire.

I’ll start in the morning, it will probably help me for hunting to shoot twice a day anyway.
