Otto Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 I may have missed it, but has the WNY Academy started yet? I organized a weekly bow shoot at my local gun club. Tuesdays from last week of August until last week of September. 25 Shots, 10 indoors at 20, then 5 at a ED buck from a standing position, then 5 from inside a blind at a sitting position, and final 5 from elevated tower. The last 2 spots you choose your target from a coffee can with various 3D targets set at different yardages and of various sizes - doe, coyote, raccoon, turkey, buck, etc. It’s been fun and great practice. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawdwaz Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 We have tentative plans to shoot Monday night. One resident professor is traveling on personal business but is trying to get back in time. We have others on the faculty that can fill in, if need be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
