Went shoot yesterday my frist 3D competition. It was unknown distancies 28 targets with 2 arrows.. It was really difficult without training to figure out the distancies.. But still it was very nice track and very good training for look the distancies trough the ground.. I had lots of fun even missing complitely 4 targets. All the short ones also guessed to close, but some far away animals were pritty good. Like standing bear in 57/45 yard or so.. Shot first one straight in the small circle, 10 points and secont to 8. The max is 20 points per animal..
Not many points like 278/560...but had fun and it was a good training :).

Spring
Nice weather we have here in Finland. Still during night temperature goes below zero and during day like +10 and cold wind from north..
During day I can shoot some arrow next to the house when Sara is taking a day nap. Yesterday evening went to shoot, but it was so cold that my finders freezed. Still shot like 140 arrows, the wind stopped so it was possible to shoot in the end.. Shot some 50m, 40m, 30m and 10m with old arrows that don't group. But still best group from 30m was all arrows (12) in yellow (80cm target).
Promised rain for tomorrow, maybe going for in to tune the golden bow..

First field this year
Weather was better that couple weeks before the competition, in the morning it was little clowdy, but in the afternoon the sun was shining a little, so no need to keep the jacket on then..
The competition started with 12 unknown targets and I was first 8 targets like frozen from the long winter. So it took some time to use to shoot outside and in the woods, because no chance to practice in the wood before competition. So in that 8 targets made lots of misstakes like shot wrong target at 5m bunny :(..
But after warm up the shooting started to work and got 166 point to unknown round. Second round in the known targets the shooting was working good. Couple targets 11 points, 50m/80cm and 40m/60, but the others was like average 15points, very good known round 170 points :).
So togethers 166 + 170 = 336 and with one 5 point miss... Very good start of the season with almost no
field practice and with the weather like that..
Going for Germany to shoot Altenkirchen on 12-13.5.2012. There's gonna be some very nice targets,
up and down.
