Love going to this indoor range in San Diego, shooting at 10 or 20 yards. Does anyone have other recommendations in the area?

Spending early Sunday morning doing basic instinctive archery with my sister.

Watching sunset after coaching is nice 🤍

Hello archers. Just found out im not a bad shot for a 1st timer and now im hooked. Any places to look for tips and tricks?

New hobby discovered.

I would marry a guy who buys me a bouquet of Easton x10 arrows 😭

Not quite sure how I pulled that off since Im usually just happy to hit the target :p

So I did a thing yesterday...

Feels good to shoot again 🤓
Not my league setup, but just getting into position is satisfying 😁

Me and my Bow

I have been shooting since 2017 but I stopped almost 2years, due to college, I came back like shooting and training for almost months but it's not consistent, it's kinda depressing cuz I'm not the same as before. My only problem rn is I can't click my clickers, i can still pull my bow and everything but I can't click it 😔 any suggestions how to improve this. I also don't have a coach anymore

Any tips

It was only 20meters away and I cherry picked my best shot but I feel really proud. It took so long to get here from swapping from a recurve bow from shooting off the shelf on the left side to shooting off the hand with the arrow on the right side with thumb draw. There were so many small things I had to keep experimenting with to get more consistent. 

I don’t really have anyone to share it with but I really want to so here you guys go.

It was chilly and very damp morning. Intresting challenge.

Una mañana fria y mojada. Un reto interesante. Amo el arco por me recuerda a estar enfocado.

A cold and wet morning. An interesting challenge. I love the bow because it reminds me to stay focused.

I won gold at my first archery competition recently!

Okay so this is the Matthew's title in the 40-in axle to axle and I have to say that ever since this moment I have dreamed about getting this bow haha absolutely fantastic in my opinion and I wish that I could have used it in that competition

When I was competing at Vegas

Still... less than 1% chance I hit you...

I'm OK... not very good.

happy friyay

I'm just now getting back into Archery. When I first got into it I really didn't know much and I still don't. But I do know that I prefer recurve over compound for right now just due to how much compound bows cost. I'm curious what everyone else likes. And for you compound bow people. What are some good starter but budget friendly bows because eventually I would love to get a compound.

Recurve or Compound

Went out this weekend and got some good practice in with my bow.

Best sport in the world

Finally got the right belt for my quiver

Now im a life long archer but certain things about the archery world just drive me nuts now its been a while since ive been this immersed in the archery world but im trying to get back into it but the whole 3D archery thing wich I love the whole unknown yardage thing about the competition I get it to make the competition more difficult but its not like pope and young counts it against you if you take a range finder bow hunting so they are just like I said trying to make the competition more difficult then I dont know if this still applies but for years if you hunted with a bow with 80% let off pope and young would disqualify you from entering animals wich makes no sense did they imagine we would climb up in our tree stands nock an arrow and draw our bows back and hold it waiting on what ever we were hunting to walk into view I mean I dont get the logic in that rule at all does any one else think we need some higher  intelligence on the rules boards of the archery world we all love ❤️

It's big, it's a hard draw (60lbs), it's not as strong as the 45lbs recurve next to it, but I love it!

First English Warbow!

What got you started/ had you stopped/ picked archery back up again? Lol 

Me: Ammo got expensive, injuries and life events, finally found time for it in my rotation of endless hobbies haha

My Fellow Archers

I cant wait to show up at my first 3D competition with my new bow its so tiny im sure I will get a few laughs until I shoot a few arrows i dont know for sure what the Chinese have done or if American archery companies are doing the same I hunt with a crossbow because their is no advantage to hunting with a regular compound an animal killed with a crossbow is scored the exact same as if its killed with a long how or recurve or compound bow so why would I not hunt with the crossbow I compete with a compound bow in 3D I was mens pro open class I will turn 50 in December so I can shoot senior mens pro or how ever its worded the bow I have now for next year is less than 24 inches axle to axle it has a shoot through riser built in over draw because the handle is almost 3 inches behind the bow wich turns  my 29 inch draw into a 32 inch draw the ACE arrows I have at 310.5 grains with my bow set to 62 pounds I am getting speeds of 415 to 417 feet per second thats as fast or faster than the crossbow I mentioned I dont know if its the short axle to axle that creates such a steep and powerful power stroke the cams are not ridiculously hard it shoots very smooth not like other bows ive pushed beyond being accurate to achieve speed those became critical and I would have to back down from the edge or make hunting bows out of them I always used a bow with a 37 inch axle to axle measurement that seemed to be the sweet spot for me I could go a little longer a 40 to 42 inch axle to axle bow and they were smooth and stable but not burning fast the Chinese have also used a double string system the cams have 2 groves for 2 strings to wrap around equally and a dead stop module system that means a stable shooting wall that helps tremendously with shooting super tight groups I am not sure wich of these systems or if it is just the combination of them all that makes this hands down the best bow ive shot to this point in my life I have been a PSE man since 1999 I tried the solo cams and I have always embraced a shoot through riser but this bow is in a league of its own we think Americans have the inside track in archery but the Chinese and Mongolians lead and conquered the world with the first composite bows utilizing a release so dont turn your nose up at 10,000 years of perfecting archery equipment by that part of the world I have always believed its the shooter not the bow but its hard to argue with shooter friendly equipment that brings the best shooter out of you to be worthy of the bow you hold thats a perfect marriage I think

Anybody likes stuffed toys???
