Really enjoying all of Dan’s tips! He is a shooting machine! One thing as far as safety goes, I noticed people crossing behind the wolf target when you were judging the distance! If someone bounced one off of the log 🪵 or off the wolf’s back it looks like an accident waiting to happen! Just a thought!
Thank you Dan for that tip regarding taking weight off the back bar if a shooter is breaking low on the shot. This was happening to me recently.So I took your advise and fixed it in practice. I took off 1 .oz of weight from my back bar and now my pin just floates on the dot as my shot breaks now.. Thank you Cam Media as well.
Question: If you call a 12, high or low, and then miss, does that mean you score what you hit? So basically if your not going for the 14 a person shoukd always call 12 right? Just curious. New to all this. Thanks
If you don’t call upper, it’s automatically assumed you’re going lower. If you call lower and hit upper, it’s a 10. If you call 14 and hit either upper or lower, it’s only a 10.
Cool video. And timing is excellent, because I missed that dang Wolf on the Open 40 range at Metropolis (as did a lot of people). When I judged it, I saw 30-31. For that set, there was not a straight path to the target and there was just ever so slight elevation change. Other than my eyes playing me, how would you recommend judging on a target where there isn’t a straight path on the ground to it? Btw, it was 38 yards and the armpit was shot up, so I wasn’t the only one missing it bad.
Can you guys talk about why a bow breaks low versus the middle? I shoot two different target setups through the summer, a traverse and a trx 36 and the trx I tend to break lower for some odd reason. Mass weight possibly?
