Successful Hunting

On Saturday April 10th, and 11th the Abbotsford Fish and Game Club will be hosting the Chad Davis Memorial 3d Archery shoot. It is a 2 day event with food and prizes. It is always a good time with good people and a great way to tune up for your spring bear hunts.

The animal targets on the 3-D course have two scoring rings. The inner ring scores 10 points while the outer ring scores 8 points. An arrow hitting anywhere else on the animal scores 5 points. This is if you hit the animal on your first arrow. If you require a second shoot the scoring becomes; 5 for the inner ring, 4 for the outer ring and 2 anywhere else on the target. The 3-D targets are shot at from shooting the shooting stake that corresponds with their class. There are stakes for compound shooters, long bow and recurve shooters, cubs {children 7-12}, and pee wee {children 6 and under}.

I took my bow out yesterday to put on my new G5 Optix LE sight that G5 outdoors sent me as I was having problems with breaking screws on my prior Optix LE 5 pin sight. The new one seems to have improved with beefed up screws. In no time I was sighted in. The sight was basically adjusted for my bow exactly out of the box. I just had to move the whole sight box up and right.
