How Many Arrows Y'all Shooting?

[UTGrad]

How many arrows a day are y'all shooting?

Ive been around 15-20 arrows a day. Sometimes 30-40.

 

[BAMA BOW MERKER]

Depends on how I'm doing lol. Usually 10-15. I won't leave till I'm satisfied or too pissed off

 

[Treestand Troubadour]

Usually at least a dozen. Some days I could prob shoot 40-50 but once I start gettin a little wobbly or tired I quit. I don't push it like I use to. Years ago I would shoot til I started shootin bad then kept shootin to try to get back on point but that did more bad than good

Yep this is what I do and wish I had done it sooner. I used to shoot till I was fatigued, get frustrated my groups were opening up and keep shooting to get my groups tight again

Now I keep my shot count low and always end on a good group. That builds confidence for me.

Also I always make that very first shot count. I shoot a hinge but hunt with a thumb trigger. I usually shoot my first shot with the thumb trigger to simulate hunting.

3 or 4 sometimes 6

the one and only "ImThere"

Just a few. I've been having some rest timing issues, so I've been repairing vanes... I need to get to shooting though. I just put a new sight on my bow that needs to be set.

Not as much as I want to......been spending alot of time bowfishing and it taking away from normal practice time....

I'm shooting my usual 24-30 arrows a day split into two sessions. Sometimes I just walk out with 1 arrow, shoot once and go on to something else.

I'm starting to shoot twice a day as well. Usually start around this time.

I think shootin one arrow does more good than anything. I always try to picture that buck walkin out and havin to make that one shot count

 

[UTGrad]

I think one arrow is good for a seasoned shooter with good form. I still believe practicing on form and shooting several ends is the best way to improve overall. I've heard of guys simply shooting "one arrow" when they probably needed to practice more and improve overall. Just my opinion.

 

[tree_ghost]

Usually 6 for me

Just shot a few out in this heat and didn't feel well after 30 minutes. Quickly cooled off inside.

You shouldve come hung out with us at Old Hickory today! Nothing like hanging out in this rare July cool snap that we had over us out there today! :drool:

Wow did anyone get sick?

 

[TNDeerGuy]

Believe it or not, No—at least no one that I heard about and I think I would've heard about it. Everyone was doing good at drinking water, etc... One thing was certain, I'm sure a ton of people in Mid-TN took some really long cold showers this afternoon!

It's peak 3d season, hunting season is coming and I am currently shooting 100-150 arrows a day.

 

[Headhunter]

500 per day.

 

[UTGrad]

500 per day.

I figure that would take 6-7 hours minimum.

 

[Headhunter]

about 50 minutes

If you shoot 10 arrow ends at 30 yards it will take an average of 4.5 to 5 hours to shoot 200 arrows. I use a clicker to monitor my arrow shot count for practice.

 

[DixieCrafter]

about 50 minutes

That smells like bovine scatology! :moon:

 

[Headhunter]

Miscounted, 514 in the morning and 490 in the evening. Too hot in the evening to match the morning.

 

[Treestand Troubadour]

500 Arrows in 50 mins? That's shooting an arrow every 6 seconds for almost an hour. Not sayin it can't happen but shooting accurately? Not even any time to retrieve any arrows

 

[Headhunter]

Not a problem if you are fast.

 

[infoman jr.]

What are you learning after the first 50 arrows? I would just get mentally and physically fatigued and start to get sloppy.

 

[Unicam]

I shoot at least 6 arrows three times a week and on Wedensdays I shoot a 3D walking course with a dozen different targets in the woods and 15 targets in an open field.

You must be shooting recurve really fast with a bucket full of arrows. I see some recurve folks come out to the Franklin range and start flying through the arrows.

I found a new place to shoot but its requires hauling my target and all my gear so when I get set up I'm kinda there for a while. I shoot more arrows when its not as quick as stepping out the back door. The good news is I can shoot a lot further.
