Vegas 2009

I enjoyed the video of the compound shooting. My not knowing what all goes on at the Vegas shoot, so I'm going to ask, isn't there any recurve competition? Also, what is the distance that the compound shooters are shooting in the video.

Cool video but better Live in person.

I was at the shoot-off and yes I would have preferred to hear "the shot has been challenged" rather than hear the score but that is splitting frog hairs in hind sight!

What was really spectacular was the camera work at the shoot. They had big screen TV's that the crowd could watch and the Camera would scan in on the target on one TV while showing an isolated shot of the archer on the other TV. You could watch the shot execution and the result side by side, it was awesome! In those cases where the shot looked sketchy they would zoom in on it and you could really see all the detail. Yes, watching it live was really exciting, but it's great to see the rest of the world can also share in the excitement! Hopefully we'll see VS or ESPN do a similar show I know if I couldn't be there I would watch it.

Just in case the NFAA is reading this post, Please put the name tags back up so we know who's target is who's in the shoot-off.

it seems to me that all rules were followed...a judge announced his score, a challenge, a second, a third, and a concensus...great shooting from all involved!

wow great shoot off. As for the rest of the robbed not robbed having to win twice "HOGWASH" i have completed in many sports my whole life "wish i tried archery long time ago" and what happened happens in a lot of championship games. But Both shooters held there composure and performed to the best of there abilities. Hoyt simply shot 1 more x at the right time. Funny how it ends the 2 best bows on the market with the 2 best shooters that day. Magnus all i have to say is you never once congratulated Reo with out mentioning Morgan, am i mistaken? or???

side note i didn't see a lot of us south paws punching the x out lol

i personaly THINK they should count all x,s thruout the Tourny(for the shootoff). it just doesent seem right a person with a 900 w 75-78x,s Deserves to be in a shootoff with somone whe shoots a 900 w 86-87 x,s...or am i just weird to think this, i mean X,s are THERE and SCORED for a reason right?

Vegas 2009 Indoor Championship WOW!

I happened to have been blessed enough to have attended and shot in the very first Las Vegas Open. And, then a few others.
Back then we shot at a black target with a white one inch center... blasting away with 5 arrows... OUCH! Ruined a lot of mid-nocks.
Old Recurves for everyone. Nope! The long stabilzers hadn't even shown up let alone any fandangled releases.. And, Roy Hoff was always looking for a story! Fred Trancuso and then some old friends by the name of Tony Marino and Marge were about to change that in a couple of years... and then in a few more years we would see those new pieces of machiney called compound bows.. WHEW!

Well, this 2009 Vegas open and your sharing it was great and I do appreciate being able to review it time and again and again! And!!! One of the most important things I noticed as an old coach was the very important fact that except for one single archer out of 18 of the great finalist....
not one was wearing glasses! NOT ONE!
hmm..now can't say the same for the officials... they even had 125 power manifying glasses from the local 99 cent store... what a shame to give away a championship based on a squinting from 4 to 5 different directions... should have borrowed someones scope... whew...what a way to leave a championship in dire need of supervision??

Back to the glasses situation.... Like many others, my having reviewed many (in person and by video and pictures showing in action, state, USA, WORLD championships i.e. Indoors, FITA's, 3-d, NFAA's, ect.. except for a pair of sunglasses or two... NOT a single person wining 1st Place, GOLD, or the MONEY was or is wearing glasses.
Yes! I know there has been IN THE PAST a few champions who at one time wore glasses.
But todays consistant World Champions do not...
and Las Vegas 2009 proves my point as a person and an old coach who has been around archery for well over a half a century ... I share this with the newbie and or the seasoned archer...
If you want to be a CHAMPION ...
before you put out well over $25,000.00 just need to come up with the necessary equipment, machinery and supplies to set yourself up to become staked with the needs and knowings of an archer... YOU MUST FIRST BE PHYSICALLY FIT! and (month after month year after year) you must stay that way at ALL TIMES... Even when you are not shooting...

Constant worth of one's self must be protected.
Ye
