Charity Shoot 2014-Oct-18

Sometimes even I'll do altruistic things every now and then. Today's good deed: attending a friend's son's charity shoot so he can have a better shot at making the USA Junior Dream Team in Olympic archery. I don't think he's old enough to do the 2016 Olympics but he certainly has a shot at the 2020 Olympics if he keeps working on it!

 The Bear at full draw with his hunting compound bow. Think the draw length might be a touch long on him but as long as it works and as long as he can hit accurately and precisely enough, it's all good.

 After the shot... looks like he's finally starting to use back tension with the compound even if he's using a caliper release. 

 And I think he just hit the trigger because things are starting to move at soon-to-be Warp Factor 9! Not the world's biggest fan of caliper releases but heck, they DO work!

 Some of the prize goodies at the On Point Archery charity shoot for Tyler Levanduski, aspiring Olympic archer.

 And some more art work for the charity shoot...

 Some more art work...

 And a really spectacular piece...

 And there's also a bake sale and pizza for those who have an appetite. After all, 10 rounds of 3 arrows can be hunger-inducing!

 The On Point archery range...

 Archers and spectators getting ready for action...

 I just like this riser.

And now... here's all the cool groupings. My arrows have silver fletches and blue nocks, the Bear has the orange fletches and white nocks. 

And a bonus clip of the Bear in action:
