I think we will set the max at 40-45 yds. We have only palyed around with this target system at our indoor range (20yds). This will be the first time we actually set up a tournament. We will probably set up another outdoor shoot or 2 this summer. It is a lot of fun, I attached a link to their website to see the system in action.

We don't have room in our range to leave it set up all the time, wish we did. We will be setting up at the Ice Rink this weekend only. We do hope to set it up again, outdoors before the summer is over. Hope you can make it this weekend.

lipripper, we should go to this.  joe, thanks for posting; it's a shame that this whole northwest part of the state has been lacking something like this up until now.

We set the system up at our indoor range last month to see how it operated, it was a lot of fum. We only have 20yds at the indoor range so it wasnt a full blown set up like we will have this weekend. If you have never shot this type of a system you will not regret coming this weekend. There are 7 pop up targets and 1 running target. You need 5 arrows per round, bring extra arrows.... :o Hope to see you all there.
