BowCast Blog

Part 1: Logistics and Saturday

            When you think of 3D archery shoots, a few key items come to mind, foam

inserts, manufacturers like Rinehart and the R-100, field tips, and targets set up for

everyone to take a shot at.

 

I look at the calendar and realize the Bird is only about a month away, I reserved my room at Snowbird a few weeks ago but I have been holding off on booking my flight.  I am a big fan of traveling on a dime and look for the best deals wherever I can.

I have read and heard from several people that they are not attending because it is too for or too expensive.

While I can't see into everyone's checkbook to see if this is the case or if it's a case of thinking you can't afford it.

Hi BowCasters!

I can't believe how time flies and looking back my last blog entry was in November of 2009.   Shortly after that post I was approached about a job opening.  After about a month of negotiations between two CFOs we made the decision to move.  We are now finally settled  and I will be more consistent with my blog entries.  

 

I have everything I will ever need; I have everything I will ever want.

So for my birthday I have just a few wishes:

Come inside to see what BowCast At The Bird 2009 was all about. See the venue at Snowbird Mountain, hear from attendees, and take a peek at the beginner and intermediate courses.

Parts 2 and 3 will include a feature segment on the "Elite" course at this event, sponsor seminars, and the BowCast At The Bird after party where tons of prizes and raffles were given away.

BowCast at the Bird 2010 will be held in July 2010. Stay tuned to www.BowCastAtTheBird.com for more details.

 

Bowhunters!

It's been awhile and you'll have to bear with me on my frequencies of blogs - after all, it is hunting season!

All I can say is that I  am counting the days until next year!  The shoot was intense, a learning experience but most of all a fun time!  Here are a few pictures.  More to come!

 

Only 6 days left until BowCast at the Bird 3D shoot!

 

Has anyone ever shot over the back of a bear or under a deer?  I have!  The main reason was not following my shot routine and failing to estimate the yardage accurately.  Everyone has a different shot routine and method for estimating yardage.  However, its important to follow your routine each and every time before you release an arrow into foam or fur. 

 

 

Just a quick post on what I'm up to.  I have been shooting my Elite Z28 everyday this week and am finally getting it dialed.  Getting ready for BowCast at the Bird and hunting season!  I got my plane ticket this week to SLC and I can't wait to shoot some foam at Snowbird.

 

BowCast at the Bird 3-D shoot is August 1^st and for many BowCasters archery season starts shortly after.  How are you improving your shooting accuracy to make this season a success?  Are you, shooting daily at the range, practicing estimating yardage, and working on your shot routine?  The realistic hunting challenges you will face at 3-D shoots allow you to apply these hours of practice, increasing your confidence and effectiveness on foam and then fur.  Shooting for your trophy starts at the range, is lived out on the 3-D course, and then experienced in the field.

 

SnowBird...I'm down for anything that has the word "resort" in its name...

 

#2 - Intimidation.
