65, 50, 80, 30 in that order...

Longest distance, smallest face...plus on most of the ranges I shoot each of these has some wrinkle to them...

Right on Sarg...the only reason the 80 is where it is because you only gotta shoot it once!!

I haven't gone to look yet....as the two times I have been to the range since I heard the news I was working on my bow and couldn't go look......

But I hear that during Snowmagedon.... the uphill 30 yd monster at Belvoir didn't come out alive :eek: :faint:

I'm a newbie (3 rounds so far), so I have my own different "issues" than the average field shooter, but so far I think I have dropped the most points on the friggin bunnies. And it's not a marks/elevation problem, I'm usually off left/right. Last week I 19'd the 80 W/U and 16'd the friggin bunny.

Concentrate on the target, and not your pin.

If you do that the pin will find the target.

You won't get there by looking at your pin, and trying to cover the spot with it.

The bunny is USUALLY just a short 20, but the one you shot a 16 on is an exceptionally difficult one. The good thing is that you can likely practice those in your basement with a block target.:wink:

Yeah, that's what I have been doing. It's the reason I went to the frosted lens instead of a pin. I just stare at the target, draw my bow, keep staring, and pull..

I'm thinking you'll have a 520 under your belt by August if you shoot field all Summer.
