Drew
got a new bow, and demonstrated his skills at 70
yards, on a target the size of an elk's vitals.
|
You
can see the blurred arrow at the right of the frame.
Note the pretty flat trajectory for this seriously
long shot. He shot ten arrows and missed the small
target block just ONCE! Pretty impressive. You have
to see it in person to realize just how far of an
archery shot it really is.

Drew
and Bob, starting the search for the one arrow that
missed the target. We never did find it.

Drew
and Bob, moved up to a 40-yard shot so I could try
to take better "arrow in flight" photos.
|
Bob
was on the laser rangefinder, to get an accurate
shooting position for Drew's calibrated sights.

The
in-flight arrow is visible at about 2/3rds along
its flight path, just right of the center aiming
point. The angle of my photo makes it look like
a wide-right shot, but it came in right in the circle.
