Thank the Lord! Team Shrew comes through again!!!!!!

Hey, it was a Japanese ending; close enough for all to call it an honorable tie.

Pics and movies to follow.

I'm wonderin' about that adage of "old age and treachery..."  :D

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! It was horrible; the pressure and yes the treachery and mind games. To have it boil down to one arrow was too much. We demand a rematch in the near future. ;^)

Horrible???, heck I had fun. As for pressure and mind games, all I did was whip out a pad and pen to keep score.     It was like flashing a cross at a vampire. Big D and little D get real nervous when they have to shoot for score.    

Rematch??? anytime my friend.  

Dis reminds me of a  shoot I was one time.  There was a hot shooter there named Ted (left hander he was).  He was shoot'n up a storm with some hot shot target recurve and I was shooting a hunting recurve.  I popped off that "heck fire I could beat him with a bow like his".....bad mistake.  He challenged me to a shoot out with my right handed bow and remember he was a lefty.  well ya guessed it  he beat me wrong handed with my own bow...  From then on I figured out it might not be the bow

and to keep my dang mouth shut!

I just shot around the range again. Ron, I don't know how to sat this in a nice way.......You give me TARGET PANIC!    

Brian showed up clean- cut; no pony tail; I think this also effected my shooting.

Denny,  sounds like you may need some BW reinforcements in the future!!!!!      ron

Sounds like Denny needs a new S.S. Gold to me. Just think Denny you could be shooting a Shrew! Then you might win next time. Good show men and thanks for posting everything about it.

Thanks guys,It has been a riot to watch this post,congrats to all the shooters sounds like a close match. As far as a rematch how about thursday the 17th at the berrian springs sportsmans club?? It would be great to watch.      

Thanks a lot to all of you for posting this episode of a great match between great shooters having a great time. I thought of you guys through out my working day and congradulations Ron on your victory. Denny I'm glad to see you ready to go at it again, I know that PLX is up to the task and I'm sure you will be too. I would have loved to have seen all of you shoot!!!

Yes,this has been fun to watch. Years ago, I used to travel down to Ron's neck of the woods and our good buddy Greg Nicolaou would join us at a local club and we'd shoot through the course, 1 pt per target. The banter and laughter of a friendly competition is good medicine for the soul.

While this was fun to hoot on fellow archers a little bit, to me it's a reminder of how much fun shooting a bow and arrow can really be.  

P.S.
Shrews Rule!  :D
