I truly admire a man that shoots less than 1" and then tries to better it. Rick you rock man, you really do.

Don't admire me, but thanks.
I do love the challenge of it.

Got 3 more tries to maybe redeem myself.

4 1/8, not even in the running.

[RickBarbee]

Still trying.
Better, but not better enough.

More good shooting, Rick!

Not bad at all, Reb. Perfect alignment, just a bit low. That's the better miss, if I had to choose.

I've been putting most of my shooting into getting my new stick ready to hunt. Then I messed myself up for a couple days sweating multiple anchor points and blah blah blah.
Yesterday I worked hard on10 yards and less and ended up getting out to 17 with things seemingly dialed in. So I printed it off and took a shot this morning. A tad high and left. I used a sharpie to outline the arrow. Good idea Rick.

LOL Gary.
Just when I think I've squeaked by Ellis a little bit for the lead, you jump in here with 7/8".

Great shot!

You have plenty of time to ge in there tighter.
You need to so I'm not scrambling to figure one out from the lease Sunday.

I'll try, but if I don't make it, that's your problem.
Suck it up buttercup.

Don't forget to post the shot at TAF.

Maybe not good enough to win the challenge, BUT Darn Sure good enough to put it through the boiler room from 15 yards with your first shot, and THAT is what these challenges are all about.

I Will Not Count This Shot.
In effect I cheated.

Note where the nails are placed in the paper.
All 4 are located at exactly the midway point of the side they are in. I measured them as I poked them in.

This enabled me to easily visually transpose lines between the nails,
for an imaginary cross at the center of the paper.

The only reason I decided to post this is, to show how even the simplest of visual aid can help you make a good shot.

Look at your animal, and pick your spot to shoot.
Almost always there will be a physical characteristic at the spot,
or characteristics you can triangulate to the spot.
