14 of last week's 15 returned to play again this week.....every shooter either maintained or improved some aspect of their round.......great shooting to everyone. I want to initiate a moment of silence now for a couple reasons.....one is that my Ovation sold yesterday.....I will miss her. Second, my Scepter IV is back in action which is a sad, sad day for all of you.......:rockon:


Here they are.....................

Round 1.......


vawildfire has been nominated for the position of Oak splinter remover......head to the bench and start preparing the Oak for 12 more of us....... I like my coffee diluted with creamer and sugar.....:D

Round 2.....


We have a 3 person shoot off...... chelleo, mrs pilot and myself have all put up 27s.......first shoot off has jcmorgan moving on and what's this?........the ladies are gritting their teeth and giving each other the evil eye.....they have tied again......second shootoff and mrs pilot has felt the pressure and missed her mark.....who says there can't be drama in the first rounds???:rockon:

Round 3....

An old rivalry is re-kindled.......bowhuntnhoosier and chelleo have once again been forced into a shoot-off. bowhuntnhoosier once again gets sent to the Oak by the arrow of chelleo. There is no mercy shown in this league........:lol:

nice shooting guys......hey JC....can you make it a tad smaller.....its too big for my screen.....:lol:

GET A BIGGER SCREEN!!!!:biggrin1:

nice shooting guys......hey JC....can you make it a tad smaller.....its too big for my screen.....:lol:

Ok everyone. I am going to re-calibrate my entire system to reduce the spreadsheet to fit on Bowman's monitor. This should only take 4 or 5 hours so stand by and just keep hitting refresh until I get back on line.......:bowl:

I was only kidding:hug:

Round 4.....


I saw this coming after round 2. mrs pilot has been glaring at pilot for 2 rounds now......I could see it wearing down on him.....I don't blame you my man.....hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.....no go and comfort her....:lol:

I was only kidding:hug:

Me too....... Ask and ye shall receive.... resized just for you.....:peace:

Round 5.....

At least I went out with a 28 and not the 27 I shot next........:dizzy:


Now the riff raff is officially out of the way.....the rest of you real archers can carry on......


Did I mention I sold the Ovation.................:rockon: :rockon:

Round 6....


Another bites the dust.....chelleo......put something over that shiny arrow flinger and head to the Oak.......I bet you're glad you went out with a 29 and not the 25 you shot in a couple rounds....:biggrin1:

Round 7.....


Gator eye and SinGin have tied and will shoot it out. Gator my friend.... 30's are barely making the cut at this stage of the shoot......29s will put you on the Oak in a hurry.....good shooting and come on over to the log....it's gettin crowded, but the company is good...:welcome:

Darn out in the seventh round.

What I need is a better bow.

Anybody know of a good used Ovation for sale? I could use one:lol:

Round 8.....


Now we get down to the nitty gritty.....the time for the great ones to step forward and smile at the pressure....SinGin, Hook em, and jimposten have all shot identical scores so fling another fellers.... SinGin brushes off the pressure and leaves the Hook and the stab man to fight it out.....

Mayber there is something to that Posten Stabilization......go seeking comfort Hook em, we don't feel sorry for you....:peace:

Darn out in the seventh round.

What I need is a better bow.

Anybody know of a good used Ovation for sale? I could use one:lol:

That is not funny......:mad:

10 point deduction for you next week......:rockon:

Round 9.....


Mr Posten.......paging Mr Jim Posten....please report to the Oak log....your 29 didn't make the cut.....paging Mr Jim Posten...

Great shootin my friend......those 29's just don't hold their weight do they?

Could you make the charts WAY bigger, they are tiny on my Giagantic screen:D

JIM

Could you make the charts WAY bigger, they are tiny on my Giagantic screen:D

JIMLOL:peace:

Round 10.....

If you made it this far....congrats....at least you'll get points toward the 3Dshoots.com cup...

Another 3 way shoot off.....SinGin has been here once or twice already and advances with a 2 X end.....xxSPOTTSxx fires of a 3 X round. SIN "ERGY" is claiming he wanted to see if he could purposely shoot a 30 with no "X"s. If that is what he did then he is the man....I think he just missed them....:biggrin1:

Could you make the charts WAY bigger, they are tiny on my Giagantic screen:D

JIM

Now that is funny.......:biggrin1:

Sorry though, I only take points away, I don't give them out....:noidea:

And now the moment all you over achievers have been waiting for. The roll of the magic red die.....

I know the minute I put the scores up, some of you are doing the elimination yourselves to see who ends up where. This is why I chose to roll the die at the end of the 10 ends......

How else can I keep an audience for at least 10 ends?????:biggrin1:



And the number is...........................6

Not hijacking here, but does any one else have this problem, Every week, I have one spot that I tear the middle out of, last week bottom right, this week I rotated the target to throw me off, still the same spot... just in a different location.

If I could hit them all like that one spot, I would be heading to vegas.

Tell me about it, I took 5 pics and that is the best one, I must have the settings messed up on the ol camera.

JIMWell if the pick is any indication of how your vision is than theres the problem.:lol:

Round 11.....

We start scoring again on round 6....

SinGin and QSA are shootin off after each put up a 31....SinGin just can't find it in him to pull off another shoot off victory. Come on over and join the fun on the log....

I find that if I don't hit the center on my first shot, then I tend to get distracted by the hole of the missed arrow. Now always, but usually....

Round 12......


Bowman and QSA are at it again......this time it takes 2 shoot offs to settle this one.....QSA's 30 on end 9 just can't hang......all the doughnuts are gone over here at the log, but there is one bear claw left.....

I usually have one that is better than the other two, but not THAT much better! Good shooting everyone btw!

I think He needs to mount a stabilizer to the camera.

lol...yeah, it seems the camera could use some serious stabilization!

Last round......


Congrats to our final two....awesome shooting.

Two shoot offs are required for these gladiators of dyneema, carbon, and aluminum to settle this weeks sit down. After 6 more arrows are launched by each shooter, xxSPOTTSxx finds himself two points short.....and we have a new champion......

Congrats BOWMAN......that Genesis is something else............:rockon:

Congrats buddy. So how many of smokes magic pencils did you swipe in PA???:laugh:

And CONGRATS to all of you for a very good round. Except for Chelleo, I'm gonna put a curse on that nasty ole Hoyt this week.:biggrin1:

Hey chris we need a bigger server, Bowman won and his head is getting bigger and bigger. We are running out of space.
















Just kidding bud, congrats.

thank you......I felt pretty good shooting.......


moving my trigger helped.....

After seeing that picture of Bowman molesting that poop little bear it's kind of hard to say anything nice about him. I hope we don't see him on an episode of "To Catch A Predetor" on Dateline at the zoo

although your INFATUATION w/me an my activities is a little on the weird side.....


I am flattered that you lay awake at night to come up w/your witty little digs.....:hug:

Ok so how can I fool myself and think it is the second or fourth end instead of the third??? That is just killing me.

By the way we need to start hearing reasons to pick you for the shirt people. I think I'm gonna win this week................I had a premonition.:peace:

I thought I already won the shirt?

Plead your case. And do not use your lovely wife as bribery.

I thought I already won the shirt?

you did for week 1:doh:

I think I have more fun reading what you say for each round...hehe it's pretty amuzing...but I have no clue how you do the points? Maybe I'm tired...but I don't remember or my brain is just dead.

Jim I have the same problem ....not the blur-a-vision but one target I nail pretty well and it's always one that i have my issues with.

The graph got really small on my monitor....Bowman get a shrink ray or something cause our humungous monitors just can't handle those itsy bitsy charts well. I had to get out the magnifire for heaven's sake :lol:

Bowhunterhoosier I'm so sorry...I really don't mean to ....I mean I really don't :lol: muahhhaaaaaaa
