Have fun, Mike. Ya know, I think they discourage 3D on the GG these days!
 
Have a great time!!

Looking forward to the pics!!

I am itching to get into archery... Boomstick has invited me out to his place so I can get my feet wet and he can show me a thing or two.
 
hey folks.. we're back from the shoot... we got in a few hours ago.. it was a lot of fun... the property is amazing.. it was really hot..:eek:

i didn't shoot that great this year, my knee was giving me problems all weekend long.. it was nice and swollen when i got home..
we all had a great time none the less.. i'll try and get some pics up soon..

here's to yet another Rancho Neblina shoot down in the books.. :)
 
Glad you folks had a good time.....:)

Sucks about your knee man....you really should spend less time on em. :eek::p

What an awesome weekend. Man I love archery golf!

Not much I can say, other than we had a great time with friends and family all weekend. So who's going to the Gene Foster shoot???

Well, I'm just gonna throw up some pics. Mike, Mike, Mike, Greg and Al, if you guys want to see all the pics I took, go to the link below to download full size pics if you see any you want.

So, how often do you get to do this with a bow?

Some other novelty shots. The carousel, roll the dice to decide which two animals to shoot, then try to shoot them as they spin in a circle. I even got an arrow in flight in this photo (white arrow about to hit turkey).

Had to push our way through the cattle to get to one of our targets. Everyone loves standing in fresh pies while taking there shot...

right on Nick... great pics man...:thumbup: it was indeed a great time.. we love that shoot..

sorry for being such a crab at times.. having a bum knee and hiking up and down all those hills in the heat, really took it out of me..:(

i'll try and get my pics up tonight some time..:) i got some good ones..
 
Great pictures, Nick. The heat took it all out of me too.

Got home expecting some relief and it's 103 right now...:thumbdn:
 
Great seeing other folks shooting bows that don't need wheels, hinges, levers, wobbly bits and cables dangling from them.

Here's my son shooting his...

hey, be nice to us wheelie clowns!

just so long as you're slinging shafts rather than spitting lead, it's all good.

damn, i really need to get off my arse and head out again. been a couple of months since i've gotten a chance to shoot.
