March with the Great Plains

Hey, folks. Craig with Bowcrest, out with the little stick bow today. This is Great Plains Sr. Swift, Rio Bravo, picked up from Shane just a couple weeks ago. So I've been having some fun with this bow, but I wanted to show you one thing I love to do. We're in between seasons right now. Turkey season hasn't come in yet. Deer season's been out for. For a couple of months. So kind of practicing up for turkey season. But I. Everybody may not have the luxury, but I've got the luxury of a row of round bales here that we. We put out for the cattle. So one of the things I love to do, purely instinctive shooting, is shoot down the range here bales. And the reason is the distance immediately varies as we go from probably 20 to 30 or 35 yards down at the end down here. So it's purely instinctive. The other thing it forces you to do is pick a real fine spot. If you look at these round bales, you'll find a little imperfection, a little piece of hay, or a discoloration that sticks out. You pick that spot, focus in on that spot, and put your shot right into it. And then just pick the next one. Now, you can't tell if I'm hitting exactly where I'm aiming or not. Only I know what the spot is, and I can't show you on the video. But that one was about an inch low and right. That one was also an inch low and right, which is interesting. And that one was pretty much right where I was aiming there. One other thing I'll do here is right behind my bow here, I've got a bow quest bow tag behind the pad here. So I'll take my phone, touch it to this. I'll shoot a group here in a second. I'll show you, and then I'll upload that right into my bow. And so I'll kind of see how I'm progressing with this bow. We'll see where that group is, how tight it is. I'll upload it right as an event inside the bow here. And every couple months, I'll shoot different groups and kind of see how we're progressing and figuring out this sweet little bow. Let's go see how that did. I gotta tell you, I am really loving this little bow. It.
