what do you all think is the hardest target in field? i am brand new and have been practicing on the targets to get and idea of accuracy required. is it just me or is a 20 on the 50 yard target pretty tough? i haven't made it out past 50 yet due to limited space behind my shop.
 
any of em can be 'the hardest'.

depends on the course. one 50yd shot on one course can be a royal pain while on another it is a piece of cake. lighting, wind to a degree if shooting from an open area into a tunnel or visa-versa, rain, terrain/angles.

the ones that would require the most concentration would be the longest yardage for a target face.
 
Everything else being equal (they never are), the farthest shots for each size target will be the most difficult. The "easy" targets wind up biting you. Hunter round usually shoots a point or two easier for me.
 
For me, it's always the 50 and the 30. I don't think I shot a 20 on either of those last year in a tourney. It's almost always a 19 or 18 on both. But the 32 fan on the Hunter round takes the cake. That target is just plain ole mean. :eek:
 
The #%$^ 65 yarder without question, but the 50 yarder is running a close second. :pukey::BangHead:
 
53 and the 48 yards are my "issue targets"

I shoot fixed pins, and those gaps are the most difficult to read especially when cuts are involved.
 
He said "field" not hunter...don't you know how to read:noidea: or did you forget your glasses today old man:tongue:

How did you shoot Sat.?
Actually what he said was: "what do you all think is the hardest target in field?" "Field" is an archery discipline that includes Field, Hunter, & Animal "rounds". Some even classify the American 600 & American 900 rounds as Field, but you should know that. Oh wait, it's been so long since you been outside to shoot that your forgot everything.

How did I shoot Sat.? Why don't you check the web page for scores - you think you got a slacker keeping the web page up to date? :cry: :shade:
 
I was going to say a hummingbird at 100 yards....
Furthest I ever shot was 70 yards.

jeesh...learn to take a joke:rolleyes:

I see you let carson and lone eagle whoop up on you...some things never change...at least its an improvement over last year...

What happened to Mac...???

Sorry for the Hi-jack...
 
Never shot a hunter round but the 32 fan sounds like a small dot for the distance...For a field round, the 30 yarder gives me a fit.
Yep, the 30 yard Field round target is tuffff, but keep the same target size and add 2 more yards to the distance along with shooting it from a fan where every footing is most likely different. :shade:
 
The 50. At no other target are my expectations and my results so far apart.
