Thanks Mike, bjrogg , I'm not sure Clint before i added the sinew in the middle it was around 25# and i know it's heavier than that now maybe 30-35# i know that short it's a stiff pull

Looks good and fast bubby...............

The question was raised as to what would be the challenge...shooting the course with accuracy and or distance...??
What do you Guys think?  I think 20 yards is a bit long for the mini's.  but the long distance shot at the bear across the lake would be fun..........
My vote would be closest at shooting the bear across the lake, and shooting the "practice" course  at the cub/youth distance for best score.

What do you think.

PS
Built mine for accuracy not distance...;)

Practice course @ cubs distance + across pond sounds fine.

I've never been to any range so I don't know what course is like, I'm very curious about what to expect for mini and full sized course. Distance size of target are there some from elevated platforms? What is behind if I miss target how many arrows might I break lol

Lots of lost arras............All I can say is lots of skunk cabbage behind the targets.................
Those who have been there know what I'm talkin about.
