Looks great, I could ruin a few arrows in there ;D. Whats the longest shot? I could use to find a 3D course around Albany. I think I'm getting a new Mathews with my bonus, if I ever get it ::).

Real nice Joe!! Always good to practice in the off season. Keeps the muscle memory working.
They have tried a couple around here, but always seem to lose their building. Not a lot of money in it, but sure is fun!!

Wish we had an indoor league around here for winter time. There is an indoor shooting range out to 30 yards but no indoor course. I am jealous Joe this guys been freezing his @$$ off shooting outside at home.

 ??? :o ??? I can not believe that Joe is keeping this all to himself. In case you guys would like to go to "Joe's" winter practice area. It owned by Dennis Francis, 4304 State Hwy 30 in Amsterdam Ny. Phone 518-843-5500. He has a full line of all types of new bows. All types of bow repairs and bow instruction. Fantastic guy. And his wife is a sweetheart. Woody is amazing when it comes to bow repair. His staff are knowledgeable and will help you with any problems and questions you may have. As for the 3-D shoot, Dennis changes things around every so often just to keep things interesting. And STKA, it is worth the trip to Amsterdam believe me. Dennis has made it a goal to be the biggest and best in Ny state. ;D ;D

Is that the shop that's set back off the road with a range just to the left of the counter. If so that's where I went for a replacement cam for my Z-Max, he went over the whole bow and put the cam on for free. Great guy there, and real friendly.

Sure is STKA. He's been making a lot of new updates for his shop. Everytime I walk in there something is changed. He's definitely in to the business because he loves the sport. No matter who comes in they treat them very well. And drobs... you really should take a trip. I'm sure you would love the Video shoot.  I hit it everytime I stop by.

That is a cool place to shoot for sure. Long commute for me though.
