Well as many of you know I had an eventful spring. I shot some of my bows for the first time last week when French Manny came to visit. I did ok considering how long the layoff had been, but nowhere near where I am used too.

This past Monday Vermontrad came down to shoot, while we had fun, my shooting was not good at all. I have been working on my form and recovering my draw length every day.

Here are the results at 15 yards today.

Black Swan 1pc Hybrid 47@30 62", Axis 500s How many arrows do you count? The shafts are almost all touching though it doesn't look that way in the pic. The light weight bow is so much fun right now.
 

Black Swan Impala Belly Mount Low Grip Hybrid, 64" 56@30 Easton Trad 2117 Only 3 at a time with the heavier bows. Don't want to over do it.
 

A&H ACS CX same specs as the Impala, Alcoa Ebony like the Impala
 

I'm getting there and will be ready come October.

Looking good Dave.  Keep up the good work.  Take it easy.  You still have some time before fall.

That is the arrow eating wall of doom back there. Adds some realism to practice, if you miss it costs you an arrow. Just ask French Manny and 4runr (well cost me an arrow lol)
