Well all the guys at the shoot wanted him to piss in the bottle.

Because he must be taking something to come up with a 548 field and 557 hunters.

God knows it can't be talent, because it's just like his personality.......he doesn't have any...........bbbaaahahaaaaaa :D :D

Everyone wants to know what Adam is taking so that we can all get some :wink:

In all seriousness, he shot bloody well. Equaled Clint's record for an IFAA round in AUS. I came second with a measly 541 field 538 hunters

Adam was using the new Carbon Tech Cheetah arrows. I think these will become the standard for Target archers wanting to shoot field. Forget about your Safaris & Carbon Aero's.

They are the same size as Safaris & Carbonaeros and will accept all the internal componentry, however they weight almost identical to a hyperspeed when made up. Plus they are very tough, and can cop a pounding...unlike hyperspeeds.

I think they are around the $16 to $20 mark....not sure will have to check AUS prices.

So at 60# my bow will shoot properly spined hyperspeeds at 298-300 fps with 80 gr points (306 gr total).

The Cheetahs weigh 297 grains with a 90 gr point made up. Dam light and bloody fast out of my bow.

I'll be checking them out further.

As Paul said, fantastic shooting Adam.
I was able to watch some of his targets and the "x" was just a glow of red from his nocks.
Eveyone did want a sample from Adam, but nobody would hold the bottle. Looks like he will get away with it.

Paul, your right with the sumation on the CT's and gee your new Hoyt spits them out well.
There was a very loud bang at one stage, are they possibly underspined for your bow?

Well randall,

I was using special prototype arrows that came out of my hoyt that fast, that no one could see them........about 500fps I think.

Any ordinary bow would have folded in half, but the superior engineering of the Hoyt is able to withstand such forces.

Only thing is my Clarifier wasn't able to match my Hoyt for shock resistance, and promptly spat itself onto the practice range. You could all see it, it was that orange glow that that looked like a tracer bullet.........poor old plastic thing it was ..burned up in the atmosphere :wink:







YEAH YEAH ...so I dry fired my bow with an audience, someone had to brighten up the presentations......woke you all up didn't it :D

And he thought you were joking when you said you would post the message, boy was he wrong...
Welcome back Paul, you have been sorely missed.

Dry-fire What dry-fire?

How could you dry-fire your bow?

Sounds like a funny insurance ad. But it was funny :lol:

Would've been great to have seen Adam and yourself Paul shooting at the National IFAA Titles, maybe next year huh?

Paul,
Have to ask: have you got split limbs after your dry fire?

Actually we thought Adam would have to sit down to take a leak..........so it would real hard to find a bottle small enough and the right shape :wink:

But knowing Adam he would most likely just like to squat on the bottle :D :D :D ........................"anyone see where that bottle went??"
