100 yard group

edited July 2007 in Bow Hunting and Target Archery
I was out playing with some long distance shots and this was the result. I turned up my limbs 2.5 turns, and re-did all my pins. Then started to step back. Eventually was at 140 yards and only missed the target once. After shooting this kind of distance 20-40 is a cake walk.

Sorry the pictures are low quality and small. I took them with my phone.

    I was at it again last night. 5 out of 5 in the vitals of a deer target... Not that I would shoot an animal that far out, but it is still fun. Others at the range last night would not try it even after I showed them it could be done.

    This with a crossbow or compound? If compound what's the weight of your arrows?

    That is with my Vectrix 29" 64lbs shooting a 400gr Gold Tip Pro Hunter arrow with 2.3" Duravane 3D fletch 2 degree right offset, pin nocks, and 100 gr target points. QAD Ultra Pro LD rest, Cobra Sureloc Sidewinder sight, 11.5" Doinker PowerBar(16.9oz), and a TruBall ST360 were all in the setup. I chrono'd this set up and came out at 280FPS.

    Any questions?[:D]

    In all seriousness this is my 3-D setup, hunting setup, and spot rig all in one. Beware the man with one gun... or in this case bow. I think it is better to shoot one bow real good, and not mess with 2 or 3 different bows.
