NAMED 2018 VEGAS CHAMPION C

Following Disqualification of Eyler

hristopher Perkins, Athens, Ontario, has been named the winner of the 2018 Vegas Shoot’s Championship Compound Open division following the disqualification of Bob Eyler of Dundee, Michigan.

The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) announced today that Bob Eyler has tested positive for two prohibited substances at the 2018 Vegas Shoot, February 11, and has been given a two-year sanction for his violation. Eyler’s two-year period of ineligibility began on September 28, 2018, the date his sanction was imposed. As a result of the doping violation, Eyler’s results obtained on and subsequent to February 11, 2018 have been disqualified including The Vegas Shoot and the NFAA Indoor National Championships. Eyler must forfeit any medals, points, or prize money.

“It is important that all archers are competing on an even playing field, especially as the level of prize money continues to grow.

This process has been a good learning experience for us as

an industry and our goal is to introduce doping control at all professional archery events in the near future,” explained Bruce Cull, The Vegas Shoot President.

The Vegas Shoot, the largest indoor archery event of the year, attracts over 3,500 archers from around the World. The shoot off for the Championship Compound Open title is the culmination of the 3-day event and features a sudden-death shoot down for the $52,000 grand prize. Archers earn a guaranteed spot in the shoot off by shooting a perfect 900 score over three days of competition.

One additional archer earns a spot in the shoot off by winning the title of “Lucky Dog”. The lucky dog is the one 899 shooter that wins the opportunity to compete against the perfect 900 shooters. The lucky dog is determined in an arrow-by-arrow shoot down with all 899 shooters participating. The lucky dog can win the shoot off to claim the Vegas title or will be placed back into regular ranking at the top of the 899’s. scores, tournament info and more at www.nfaausa.com 5

2018 VEGAS CHAMPION | PERKINS The 2018 Championship Compound Open shoot off came down to a face-off between Eyler and “Lucky Dog” Perkins.

Eyler defeated Perkins, putting Perkins in ninth place at the bottom of the eight other shoot off participants. As a result of Eyler’s disqualification, Perkins will jump from ninth place to first and will claim the $52,000 prize and the coveted Vegas title. Perkins is the second lucky dog to take the Vegas title, Sergio Pagni was the first in 2016.

“Although we can’t go back and give Chris Perkins that winning moment in front of the roaring shoot-off crowd, we hope that the archery community will help in congratulating him on the incredible achievement of his first Vegas title,” encouraged Cull. “There will also be a special recognition for him at the 2019 Vegas Shoot.”

Outdoor Field NATIONALS 2018 ®

T

he 73rd annual NFAA Outdoor National Field Championships in Mechanicsburg, PA was hosted by the Mechanicsburg Sportsmen’s Association (MSA) July 25-29, 2018. A total of 528 archers competed over this 3-5 day tournament which featured 2 field, 2 hunter, and 1 animal round. Participants are required to shoot at least one of each round, only the top score from each round will count toward your final score. Professional archers shot a 3-day schedule on Friday, Saturday and Sunday only.

around and aside from the muddy field, competitors had nice weather through Sunday.

It was another successful year for the MSA, and the 4th time this club hosted Field Nationals. Each year the tournament rotates between three locations in the US- West, Central, and East. In 2009 their bid was accepted to host the national tournament, replacing Watkins Glen who historically held the tournament for the East. This location is just as exciting- each year better than the year before!

The tournament was represented by 42 states total, including 2 archers from Hawaii. The top five states with the most archers in attendance: Pennsylvania 106, Virginia 42, New Jersey 33, New York 28, and Maryland 22. Internationally, Canada, Denmark, and the United Kingdom were represented. The youngest participant, Justin Steingrabe competed in the Cub Male Freestyle at age 8. Richard Hanlon, turning 86 in September, was our oldest competitor. He placed 3rd in the Master Senior Male Barbow division.

Tuesday was the official practice day prior to the tournament.

Unfortunately, not many archers were able to take advantage of that due to heavy rain. Wednesday, the first day of competition, started out bleak again with uncooperative weather. Luck must have been on our side because when it was time for the shotgun start, the skies let up for the majority of the day. Most archers were able to complete the field round. In the afternoon there was a brief lightning delay but soon enough the rest of the competitors finished. By Thursday the week really turned

The Mechanicsburg Sportsmen’s Association offered breakfast and lunch every day for the archers. At opening ceremonies, NFAA President Brian Sheffler gave a few remarks, along with Mid-Atlantic Councilman David Hryn, and Julia Mentzer-Yarlett a director from MSA. Steve Tincher, West Virginia Director, sang the National Anthem.

Professional Archer Shane Wills made history as the second archer to shoot a perfect 560 field round. He joins Jesse Broadwater, who made the records list in 2009. After a perfect day, Wills was excited about his score, “Shooting this 560 means a lot to me because of being only one of two people to ever do it.

The other being my best friend Jesse Broadwater. We are both from Cumberland and grew up shooting the field course at

Cumberland Bowhunters. I feel shooting the range there has really helped our success in field archery.” He mentions that he’s been close before but not clean, until this weekend!

During the Sunday afternoon award ceremony first place winners took home silver bowls, while the second and third placers received medals. The Outdoor Field Nationals is the final of five NFAA Tournaments used to determine the Shooter of the Year based on the highest combined scores from The Vegas Shoot, Indoor Nationals, First Dakota Classic, and Marked 3D Nationals. The next issue of Archery Magazine will have full interviews with those winners.

Adult Female Freestyle competitor Bethany McConnell proved that she came to Nationals to secure her spot as NFAA Amateur Female Shooter of the Year. She scored the highest in each of the rounds: 553 Field, 545 Hunter, and 576 Animal to take home first place with a total score of 1674. Other AFFS titles were awarded to Heather Steward in second place with a 1656 total and Beverly Stambul was third scoring 1655.

Third Quarter 2018

Christopher Perkins was the Professional Male Freestyle winner at Outdoor Field Nationals this year. His three-day score total was 1877. Second place went to Jesse Broadwater with 1873 and Jacob Pettit finished third with 1872. Adult Male Freestyle first place was Wendell Souza, second place Ethan Merrill, and third Christian Roberts-Olsen.

Paige Pearce-Gore once again took home the first place bowl in the Professional Female Freestyle division. She has an impressive winning streak with the Outdoor Field Nationals- defending her title for the 4th year in a row. After placing second in 2013 and 2014, Paige has been the winner in the PFFS since 2015! Tanja Jensen placed second this year (up from third place in 2017) with a total score of 1825. Hope Greenwood was only one point behind in the end, placing third with 1824.

All and all the event was excellent. We would like to thank the Mechanicsburg Sportsmen’s Association for hosting, and all their volunteers who assisted throughout the week. n

Bowfishing California

By Bill Payne

in

A

bout the Author: Bill is a NFAA Bowfishing Record Holder for Tilapia. He has been a member of the NFAA, California Bow Hunters, and Broken Arrow Bow Hunters of Corona California for 46 years. The latter is a small club with 15 members only, who share their hunting and fishing spots and their talents.

This club is really more like an extended family, many of which who, like Bill, have been in the club 30-40 years and more.

Being with your friends is what makes the fishing so much fun. You’ll say things like “How did I miss that fish?!” You’re laughing at yourself as much as your friends are laughing at you. Some friends of mine go to the ocean to fish for shovel nose sharks, leopard sharks, thornback guitar fish, bat rays and who knows what else they find.

In the East they also have carp, gar fish & gators. I would like to try my hand at a big gar fish or a gator one day.

When I think of bowfishing I think of carp, tilapia or ocean fishing. This is one of the most fun hunting adventures I have ever had. If you are in or around fish you can shoot, shoot and shoot some more. There are lots of places to shoot carp in California.

Clear Lake has carp tournaments, as do Big Bear Lake and Lake Isabella. There are many open water areas for bowfishing, and even a small game program for bowfishing in Blythe, CA.

If you live in or around San Diego area you should check out Willow Creek Archery in Escondido. Bret Scott and his son Travis own the shop. They are experts on bowfishing and have all the supplies and knowledge you might need. They are more than willing to set you up and share places to go.

Other spots like the Colorado River and The Delta in Northern California have produced some monster carp up to 50 lbs.

The average size is 2-5 lbs. The Colorado River has some that my friend Ted Keller and I have fished that are in the 25-35 lbs. range. Most of the carp are found in or around the reeds and cat tails in the shallow waters where the temps are warmer.

If you hit the spawn you are in for a real treat- fish are everywhere!

The depth of the water makes the shot so much more challenging. We have been shooting tilapia from the canals in Blythe.

You have to sneak up on these fish because they see you as quickly as you see them, and drop back down deep into the water.

If you have patience they will slowly come back up to the surface so you can sneak another shot.

Whatever you do you should try to take youth with you, to share the love of this sport so that it never ends. Hunting and fishing is in our blood and it is a privilege that we have and want to keep.

The NFAA is partnering with the ATA (Archery Trade Association) to increase participation in bowfishing, bowhunting, and target archery. These efforts will strengthen the industry and boost business for local shops and clubs, as well as our national organization. As part of our effort to reintroduce the topic of bowfishing in Archery Magazine, we will be providing more bowfishing content in the future. To learn the basics of bowfishing, visit the Explore Bowfishing Program designed by the ATA https://archerytrade.org/grow-archery/ bowfishing/.

EFFECTIVE TRAIL CAM USE

FOR WHITETAILS W

hen most of you reading this think of trail cameras, I’m willing to bet it’s in the context of hanging a camera, or two, or five, or more on a private property you have to hunt.

And, most likely, in the context of hanging them up along a bean field, scrape, or rubline. Probably for the year, with the expectation of checking them a few times on your way in and out of the stand. If this is you, you will definitely want to read on, because I bet I’ll change the way you’ll use your cameras forever!

I look at cameras as one of my strongest assets when it comes to hunting public land tracts. Over the years I’ve developed a system that allows me to quickly assess public lands and not only determine if there’s a buck worth chasing, but also to pattern other hunters, their access routes, and plan my hunts. At the time this publication should hit your mailboxes, is also about the same time frame you should start thinking about using your cameras in this manner. You can certainly run camera’s on private lands in a similar manner as well, so don’t think any of this as limited to public lands. But, I would argue it’s more effective on public lands or private lands where others are sharing hunting rights with you.

The first concern I usually hear about running cameras on public land theft. I’m not saying that couldn’t happen, because it has to me in the past, but I think a lot of the reason I don’t face a lot of that is because the length of time I’ve got them deployed. It’s shorter than you might think.

Initially, the primary goal with cameras is to quickly blanket a potential hunting area and capture as many images of individual bucks that I can, that frequent that particular tract of land. Yes, of course will miss some bucks with this process, but I feel extremely confident that I’m not wasting

on both Public and Private Lands

my time for the caliber of deer that I’m generally seeking. I also use cheaper cameras too in case I do lose one or two, and also because i can have a few more cameras out there. There are two primary cameras I use, the Covert IR series and most recently the Browning line of cameras. I prefer the infrareds, not because of concern for the deer seeing them as much as they’re just a little harder to see from human perspective mostly. To the right are some of the more popular models in a modest price range, including one of the cellular versions. But in most of the areas I hunt I have trouble getting any kind of a cell signal and the cost is really prohibitive for what I’m doing with them.

Before the cameras though, there’s one tactic I like to use where legal and where

the area permits, and that’s spotlighting and late evening glassing in green bean fields until the beans start to turn yellow.

Usually around the first week or so of October across much of Iowa. Spotlighting may not be legal where you hunt, so make sure you read your state regulations. And, definitely make sure you don’t have any weapons in your vehicle! I’m not necessarily looking for a specific buck usually, but I am looking, just like I am on the trail cameras, for a specific age structure. And, indeed, if I do find what I’m looking for, I honestly stop looking and there’s not much of a reason for me scout as I normally would with cameras. From that point on, my cameras are utilized to monitor traffic in and out of access areas more than anything else. Or, they get deployed on another property.

The further North you go, the more you can bump those dates up. The further south, the later you can expect the majority of rut activity to take place. Yes there are exceptions in certain areas, but if you use that as a general guide, for the most part you’ll find it’s pretty accurate. In most areas of Kansas for example, the week of Thanksgiving seems to be a pretty solid week that you can depend on as seeing the majority of rut activity. In Northern Wisconsin and Minnesota, you will generally see peak activity 3 to 4 days early.

If you take the week that historically has most intense activity, and back up about a month and a half, and you’ll have your start date where this system really shines.

So if you’re talking a peak time of around the end of the first week of November to the beginning of the second week, you’ll want to start dropping cameras mid to late September. I leave my cameras out anywhere from 10 to 14 days at most. By then, if I’m not seeing the age structure or a target buck specifically that I’m looking for, I’ll gather those cameras and move them to another tract of land. How many properties I’ll scout like this depends on my available time to map out and drop off cameras, and the quantity of cameras. My last round of camera pickups will be the third week of October.

The number of cameras I’ll use on a property or tract of land is directly related to the timber content. I spend an incredible amount of time on tracts with smaller percentages of timber than most. There’s a lot of benefits to hunting tracts like this.

First, it’s not as attractive to most other bowhunters. Secondly, on those types of tracts I also don’t need as many cameras, keeping the camera budget low. Third, the more I’ve hunted mature bucks, the more I’ve learned to consistently kill them, you have to be willing to hunt areas that harbor less deer, for the most part.

The timing of when you start and end this phase of scouting on each property is what makes this system extremely effective. The 22 ARCHERY MAGAZINE

only place where I suspect it may not be quite as effective is in areas of the country where the rut isn’t as pronounced as it is in the Midwest. Meaning, if you live or hunt in an area where the rut is long and drawn out, I can’t say for certainty that you capture the majority of bucks using that property. In the Midwest the majority of the rut activity is approximately November 7-10th, give or take a day, year in and year out. Whether you’re in the right tree or not on those days, you may disagree. But, inevitably, the amount of car to deer collisions will peak across most of Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio at about that time. That of course relates to peak deer activity.

I can’t tell you how many cameras are required for a specific number of acres because the layout of the tract, as well as the amount of pressure that property receives from other hunters and other public land users. I take into account how many parking areas there are and how often those are used. Basically if it’s possible to drive the property boundary, I’ll do so mapping out the heaviest used trails on my onX maps app. Before onX I used my garmin GPS and in a fairly cumbersome process, overlay topo maps onto Google Earth and map the boundary with those major crossings. But with onX, it’s just so much easier it’s ridiculous. If I can’t drive the exterior, I’ll walk it. A square 40 acre tract is 1 mile if you walk the entire tract, 160 acres...2 miles, if it were square. So it’s generally possible to easily to walk most public boundaries with ease. When I walk the property, depending on the size, I’ll fill my backpack up with what cameras I

that leads from a timber area straight along a fenceline into a bean field.

can dedicate to that property. Anywhere I drop a camera, I drop a pin on onX as well and I name the pins in correspondence with the camera card numbers so I know which images came from which cameras.

In regards to the camera setups, here’s what I’m using. Regardless of the camera brand or model, I’m looking for one that captures 1 minute video. Yes this eats batteries a little more, and yes it’s not overly exciting looking through countless 1 minute videos, but with video I can capture way more than I can with a single picture. If I’m using still pix rather than video, I’ll run it on burst mode to capture several images over the longest period of time that I can upon the motion activation.

Speaking of motion activation and camera placement, there are two other important things to keep in mind. Common mistakes I see over and over again. When possible, face the camera to the south to avoid glaring daybreak and sundown photos. And, keep your camera’s between waist height and as low as 18” off the ground. More pictures are missed by cameras being placed way too high, than any other factor. Just to be clear, I’m not saying to not point your cameras toward the ground by any means, but in general most cameras I’ve worked with

will take images with higher then the sensor triggers.

I’m also using a scrape activator and a limb attractant where trees are present.

ALWAYS, regardless of the time of year.

The key to remember in this process is that I’m not looking to keep deer habitually coming back day after day. I don’t even intend to hunt over the mock scrapes that I make. But I do get the majority of my older bucks on those mock scrape sets. Without getting into a full blown discussion about scents, use a urine based (where legal) scrape mix for the ground and break an overhead branch and spray it liberally with any non-biological attractant. Anything you would classify as a curiosity scent is best. My goal is to not only attract all ages of deer, but with this system you encourage bucks to leave their own preorbital, nasal, and forehead secretions on the limb. Socially, I believe that encourages older deer to stay at the scrape a little longer and usually gives me longer video time where I can assess age and antler size. In this picture, you can see a typical setup for me with a mock scrape. I broke a branch and applied the limb attractant, applied the scrape activator, and the camera is 20 to 30 ft. from the scrape, about about 2 1/2 feet off the ground. It’s located in a travel corridor

When it comes to locations to place cameras, this is where things really deviate from traditional theories of camera placements.

Even though I’m looking for those major trails, I’m often not placing my cameras on those major trails. There is a lot going on in the whitetail world during this time of year.

Velvets been stripped, social changes are happening that are forcing subordinate bucks out of their summer range, food sources are rapidly changing...weekly in fact, and human pressure begins to hit hard. Depending on how many cameras I have, I’ll focus on the border of the property first. Mostly because this is likely where there won’t be any other camera competition and as pressure is applied in these public parks or tracts of land that’s not normally pressured, most bucks displace to the outer edges and surrounding properties. Places I’m hanging cameras at this time of the year aren’t necessarily on major trails at road and property boundary crossings, although I most certainly will if I see a big track on a heavily used trail, I’m hanging cameras on edges of bean fields where present (in most states that I’ve hunted, even on public lands, there is some agriculture or food plots), along fencerows and breaklines in vegetation, faint trails that parallel major trails where there are borders without fences, and small ponds and water holes that are just inside timber edges. You can usually find these with the use of google earth or onX maps. Deep cuts in the contours are places I’ll take quick peeks into and can sometimes find water pockets in those types of drainages and those are killer, killer locations to grab video and photos of mature bucks. Especially when they are near bean fields or early season food sources. Most of these pictures will be night time pictures but again, all I’m looking for is proof that there is something in the area worth hunting. A quick time saving tip...if I already know if I’ll likely be hunting a property, I’ll wear some climbing gear and clear my shooting lanes when I see trees that interest me for a stand location. Generally if i clear or open up shooting lanes during this time of year, I’m almost guaranteed not to climb the

tree in November and realize I missed a few small limbs in primary shooting lanes.

This process is repeated on multiple properties. I’m generally keeping a rotation of cameras on each property only for a period of about 7 to 10 days. For example, I may have 5 properties or public land tracts I’m interested in hunting. Rather than buying 80 plus cameras to leave on all of those properties, I’ve found I can get away with less than half of that easily because I’m leapfrogging the cameras from property to property. In week 1 for example, at the start of the weekend, I may place 8 cameras on a 80 acre property, and 5 on a 40 acre property a day later. If you’re using onX maps, it’s easy to keep track of where you walked and I drop my pins according to areas of importance where I think I may capture a mature buck. The next weekend I may hang 15 to 20 cameras on a 240 acre tract on the following Saturday, and pick up my cameras from the 80 acre tract on Sunday. I dump all those images into a folder on my computer to look at them during the week when I have time. The following weekend I repeat the process and basically I’m keeping at least two properties monitored each week. I can get through a lot of properties fast like this and I really don’t think I miss many bucks based on the fact that historically if I leave them for 3 weeks or more, I don’t often get new bucks showing up in week 3 or 4. You may only be able to distribute and grab cameras every two weeks depending on your schedule, and that’s totally fine. I personally don’t want them out for more than two weeks. I don’t leave my cameras in the field any longer than that. I don’t like to even swap cards on leave cameras up. I want to capture my images and move on.

By now you should have the jest of where you should be dropping cams and the process for the camera implementation.

Here’s a quick run down of the primary areas where I focus camera efforts on week by week during this 6 to 8 week period.

Keep in mind these are guidelines that are built around the Midwest and you’ll need to adapt somewhat, depending on where you’re hunting. The week by week descriptions are focus areas for your camera’s, I’m constantly trying to place cameras on these primary food sources and areas 24 ARCHERY MAGAZINE

n

of interest as they shift throughout the season in addition to perimeter cameras, but the concept remains the same. If I find a property of interest, I’ll also be placing some cameras on parking areas to get a feel for how often they’re used, which of course will increase as the weeks go on, but it also gives me a good feeling of how people access their stand locations which comes into play later on in this article.

WEEKS ONE TO TWO (In the Midwest, last two weeks of September) - Water sources are key, especially in season water sources.

Green soybeans should be abundant at this time of year so edges like fencerows and heavy trails from neighboring properties with heavy timber that roll into bean fields are also key areas to drop cameras. If no beans are present on the tracts you’re exploring, clover and alfalfa fields.

If there’s just no food sources of that kind of nature, then you’ll mostly be focused on trails into and out of the property and

broken fences, where deer can easily cross borders. You’ll find these locations helpful throughout this window of time, and in reality, throughout the entire year.

WEEK THREE (First week of October) Water is still a key source, but as the beans begin to turn yellow, shift your cameras deeper into the properties where white oaks (or other mast source that’s dropping in your area) are present. Camera’s are placed a little deeper into properties than you would on the first week, but I would make certain I had a few up in areas with significant mast, such as acorns). I’ll also hang cameras on old rublines during this period and have been pretty successful grabbing video and images of older bucks that may have survived the previous season.

WEEK 4-5 (Second to third week of October) - Cameras are shifted fully into heavy mast crop areas, you will struggle hard with the perimeter concept during these weeks and you’ll have an awful lot of one time

BOWHUNTING |

other hunters on your mapping system as you walk.

Develop an ultralight hang-and-hunt stand system that you can take in and out with you as well as move quickly if necessary when wind conditions change midday. I take most of my mature bucks, on public and private lands, during the midday hours.

So stay on stand all day during those first few weeks of November. Again, use mock scrape sets on most all camera locations, use that last week of October to scout in the mornings. Hunt staging areas of food sources and scrape lines on the way to weekly food sources in the evenings.

pictures of bucks. And that’s totally okay.

You won’t be alone, everyone struggles to get images of mature bucks during this time period. Bucks won’t be on their feet a ton during these two weeks so don’t fret. Rub lines should be appearing everywhere. I focus my camera drops on those pretty equally as those I drop on mast crop areas. I also will have moved away from the water holes almost entirely.

WEEK 6 (Last week of October) - This is my last week for camera usage for the MOST part. I’m picking up cameras and focusing on my hunting strategies now. Scrapes should be everywhere and honestly, this week will be spent preparing stand locations and verifying places I’d like to set-up on target properties. I might leave a camera up here and there on scrape lines, but I’m basically done with my scouting at this point.

AFTER WEEK 6 - I’m in full blown hunting mode. I’ll spend this week really mapping out my stand locations on those properties, my entry and exit routes, and I’ll be looking at the camera’s I’ve left in parking areas where I’ve found target bucks and looking at that data to determine how I need to approach certain stands. It gets pretty complicated from here and heads into a totally different direction when we

start talking specific hunting tactics, but this summary gives you a great idea of how I approach the season from a scouting perspective. This last week of October you’ll likely find me cleaning up cameras in the mornings or grabbing them in the field where I’m headed in to hunt for the afternoons and evenings.

A few key points to mention when locating possible stand locations, look for areas where you will be able to move setup locations depending on wind directions.

Don’t get caught with primarily west and south wind locations and not have several east or north wind locations, find setups that will work in a variety of wind conditions and adhere to hunting those only when conditions are right. Hunt areas with the least amount of human traffic, look at your park or property maps where trails are easy to see or already drawn and draw the most likely path other hunters will take to their stands. On heavily hunted and highly pressured lands, it is absolutely key to find the areas of least activity and avoid other hunters stand locations. Some of the most productive places I’ve taken mature bucks are in the most unlikely locations.

Walk every square inch of that property you’ll be targeting as soon as you identify it as a property you’ll be hunting. Mark the other stand locations present from

Using your map and the data you have collected during this scouting season will be invaluable and help you keep faith in your plans throughout the season. When those slow days come and it seems like the rut has passed you by, remember that the most opportunity comes to those with the most patience. Make your fall plans and stick to them. Adapt when other hunters apply pressure in unexpected areas and stay mobile. This system has worked for me for years and will work for you too!

Target Archery Indoor Rounds

By Rod White | NFAA Bowhunting Coordinator, Professional Archer and Bowhunter

W

ith the outdoor season wrapping up, most of us are looking forward to hunting season, but there a lot of our members who don’t hunt, that are looking forward to indoor target archery season already. If you’re new to indoor archery, or new to the NFAA organization...here’s a quick intro to the basics of the different rounds. Within the NFAA family, you’ll likely have no problems finding other members that can walk you through your first target round. There are several variations to these rounds that are shot in clubs and leagues across the country, but

Third Quarter 2018

these are the primary rounds and reflect the way competitions are conducted at a national and sectional level.

The 5 Spot or Single Spot NFAA 300 Round This is the standard round that’s featured at the end of each indoor season in our National Championships. On the 5 spot face, archers will shoot one arrow at each spot. The white inner ring scores 5 points per arrow. The inner “X” ring is used only to break ties. The outer blue ring, although there is a light blue line within this ring, will score 4 points or any arrow in this scoring zone. An arrow need only to touch the scoring ring to achieve the higher value. 60 arrows are shot in total at a distance of 20 yards with 5 arrows per end. An “end” is the set number of arrows shot each time an archer stands on the shooting line. The total number of possible points for this round is 300. The total number of ends shot in one round is

20 ends per score with an additional two ends, prior to score, for practice.

The archers may also choose to shoot a single spot target face. If the single spot face is chosen, they also gain an additional scoring zones that include values from 1 to 5 points per target. If a 5 spot is chosen, the archer may also shoot all of their arrows into any combination of spots on that 5 spot target.

The Vegas Round Arguably the most prestigious round in target archery, the Vegas 300 round is a 30 arrow round shot at a distance of 20 yards. There are 3 targets on each target face and the archer shoots 3 arrows per end for 10 ends. An archer can also choose the single spot face for this round as well.

In doing so, the archer will gain additional scoring rings just as with the blue and white target faces. The added scoring values are from 1 to 5 points per arrow.

TARGET ARCHERY

The center of the target face on both the 3 spot and the single spot target in this round is yellow and contains a “X” ring that is used to break tie breakers, with the remainder of the yellow divided into a 10 ring zone and a 9 ring zone. The red scoring rings are next with 8 and 7 points.

The last scoring ring on the 3 spot face is blue and has a value of 6 points.

On the Single Spot, the blue ring is valued at 6 and 5, the black at 4 and 3, and last two white rings are worth 2 and 1 points.

Just as in all other NFAA rounds, any arrow touching the next scoring zone line, will receive the higher point value.

At the Vegas Shoot, archers will compete for 3 days, one 300 round per day. The shoot-offs following the rounds are used to break ties for first place in divisions where the “X” ring is not counted for a first place position.

The Classic 600 Round The Classic 600 Round is a long distance indoor round. This round is generally shot on a single spot face with one target per shooter and 4 targets per buttress.

There are 4 ends of 5 arrows shot at each distance. Archers shoot 20 arrows at 40 yards, 50 yards, and finally 60 yards. The target faces are similar in color and scoring zones as the Vegas round and extend to a 6 ring value, just like the 3 spot Vegas targets, but with only one target. There are no scoring values for arrows shot outside of the 6 ring.

Ties are again broken by X’s and shootoffs are held in an Olympic style format.

Archers that make the cut (which varies by the number of participants) are ranked, for example, from 1st to 32nd place. The number 1 ranked archer will shoot off against number 32, 2nd against 31st, 3rd against 32nd, etc.. The shoot-offs consist of 5

arrows at a distance of 60 yards, or at the longest distance for the archer’s respective division. Ties are broken with 1 arrow shoot-offs. This shoot generally marks the last of the NFAA’s Indoor season each year in Yankton, SD. n

NFAA ARCHERY CENTER HOSTS

6th Junior High Performance Academy Josahan Jaime-Santacruz | NEYAC Programs Director

AUGUST 14-17, 2017- The National Field Archery Association held it’s sixth annual High Performance Junior Academy August 14-17, 2018 at their headquarters and Archery Center in Yankton, South Dakota. This year, by popular request, the Academy was open for both compound and recurve archers. The diverse group, ages 12-18, included 24 young archers from all over the United States, from Georgia to California, New York to Alaska, Canada and Mexico. The coaching staff in attendance included Archery Center staff coach Josahan Jaime-Santacruz, Jeff Sanchez of Illinois, Michael Price of New York, Hafid Jaime and David Marin of Mexico. A feature of the High Performance Academies is the opportunity for archers to get coaching and help from professional archers. This year’s guest pros were Lexi Keller of Wisconsin, Steve Anderson of Utah and Rod White of Iowa.

Keller is a world-ranked archer with 11-world championship and world cup podium finishes. Anderson is a professional archer with 16-world cup and world championship podium finishes and was the 2017 world field champion. White is a two-time Olympic medalist and professional bowhunter.

This year archers had the benefit of elite coaching staff as well as a 5-camera angle video analysis system that allowed for review of each archer during the camp. “The video system is a key feature we are incorporating into our academy series,” remarked Josahan “Jos” Jaime-Santacruz, Academy coach and 34 ARCHERY MAGAZINE

n

coordinator. “We use it as a tool to help illustrate to archers and future participants of the significant improvements that can be achieved at our academy.”

In addition to video analysis, academy participants had an intensive four days of equipment fitting and tuning, shot execution workshops, mental management skills for competition, strength training and stability for archery and goal setting. Archers also had the opportunity to work on the NFAA 600 and 900 rounds used at Outdoor Target Nationals and the First Dakota Classic, the capstone event of the NFAA 3-Star Tour.

This year’s camp was packed with activities for archers. Activities included head-to-head match play and team rounds to get archers interacting with each other. Open shooting time with one-on-one coaching was a big part of the academy to help archers with their individual equipment and shot execution needs. Archers also had an opportunity to practice various drills to help with shot execution. Discussion topics for the Academy included talks by pros Anderson and Keller on their trajectory as an internationally competitive archer. Archers from both disciplines were mixed for most of the Academy with the exception of equipment set up and tuning where recurve archers attended a session with White while compound archers sat-in on a discussion with Keller and Anderson. Guest trainer and assistant baseball coach for Mount Marty College Jason Nelson did a presentation on

injury prevention and functional strength training for mobility and flexibility that will help archers in their training. Dr. Amanda Adamson, professor of physical therapy at the University of South Dakota, led archers in a workshop on injury prevention and treatment to reinforce principles of athletic care for young archers seeking to stay competitive long-term.

“I had a great time at this year’s Academy,” remarked Brady Klassen from Manitoba, Canada.

“I learned lots from the amazing and very knowledgeable coaches and pros. I got to shoot with many high performance archers and made many new friends throughout our activities,

competitions, and meals. I even got to shoot beside the big-cat himself Steve Anderson!”

“Thank you for the opportunity to attend the High Performance Junior Academy. I have learned a lot. Working with the coaches and the pros was a great experience. They have helped me with my equipment, form and mental management. The lessons I’ve learned are very useful. I definitely would recommend this to my fellow archers,” commented Nashruddin Macaladong of Remeoville, IL, recurve archer and 2018 NFAA Outdoor Target National champion.

Asked if he would recommend this Academy to other

young archers, Brady Klassen remarked: “To all archers I definitely recommend attending this camp next year if you want to reach that next level of archery, these coaches know what they’re talking about.

I’d love to come back again sometime soon. Thank you to all the coaches, organizers, and volunteers for running such an awesome elite camp.”

Adult High Performance Academy Josahan Jaime-Santacruz | NEYAC Programs Director

SEPTEMBER 14-16, 2018- The National Field Archery Association, NFAA, held it’s second annual High Performance Adult Compound Academy September 14-16 at their headquarters and Archery Center in Yankton, South Dakota. Seventeen archers from all over the US, from New York to Alaska as well as Columbia, came to the NFAA headquarters and Easton Archery Center. This Academy ran in conjunction with the NFAA Outdoor Target National Championship; over half of the participants of the Academy participated in both events. The coaching staff in attendance included Michael Price of New York, Jeff Sanchez of Illinois as well as Archery Center coaching staff Josahan Jaime-Santacruz and Anne Abernathy. A feature of the NFAA Academy series is the opportunity for participants to receive coaching from professional archers. This year’s guest pros were Paige Pearce, Lexi Keller, Tate Morgan and James Lutz; all of who also competed at target nationals. The NFAA Easton Archery Center provided several areas for archers to work on their skills including a 20-lane, 60-yard indoor practice range, classroom space, blank-bale area for working with pros as well as adjacent equipment area to make adjustments and repairs to bows.

Third Quarter 2018

This year’s academy featured two video-analysis systems that allowed archers to get feedback from multiple coaches as well as one-on-one coaching time with guest pro shooters. Archers had the opportunity to listen in on panel discussions where coaches and pros shared their experienced and lessons that have helped them advance in the sport. Topics covered during academy included mental management for competition; which was a big success, in-depth discussions on equipment tuning, the importance of a shot sequence and effective shot execution.

“The video analysis was by far the best,” commented Craig Stamper of Ironton, OH. “It allowed you to see every little aspect of your shot. It was awesome and I would highly recommend it because it allows you to see your shot with coaches and pros as well as yourself and really break it down throughout to make chances with visual feedback & critique!”

“This was an excellent Academy,” commented Josahan JaimeSantacruz, Academy coordinator and coach. “We had archers that were here for the Academy that also shot nationals. They had the chance to work with coaches to make sure their bows were set up well for the event and had the chance to talk to

NFAA ARCHERY CENTER pros on shot execution before and after each day. I was very impressed with the pros for their ability to jump right in to the Academy and start helping archers with their shooting, working on their bows, sharing their tricks of the trade. Archers learned valuable information and were able to apply it immediately. This was practical learning at it’s best and what makes the NFAA Academies truly High Performance.”

Asked about what activities or presentations they found most valuable, Greg Gill of Fairbury, NE remarked “The videoing, suggestions and ways to implement changes. Being able to have one on one discussions with coaches and pros was the best. It gave viewpoints not thought of by us as shooters. The need for mental work was all good as well.”

Yankton archer, Sandy Herrlein commented, “The mental and visual prep was great. We also had a long discussion on arrow dynamics and how to choose the best type of arrows. It was excellent information to help you improve your archery skills.”

The unanimous response of archers at the academy was overwhelmingly positive.

When asked if they would recommend this academy to other archers, Harry Windle of Lincoln, NE stated “Absolutely. It is a

higher level of information with all the details that are involved to become a next-level archer.”

Paul Parsons of Wood Lake, MN added, “I highly recommend this academy to all of my shooter friends and club members.

This will give me the knowledge to get to the next level of shooting. Thanks to all the coaches, the pros and the NFAA for putting this on.”

Guest pros also weighed in on their experience coaching the Academy. “Such a great experience, having the opportunity to work with people who are so enthusiastic about archery, and just wanting to succeed,” commented Lexi Keller. “10 out of 10, would recommend.”

Veteran Academy pro, Paige Pearce, added “Always a great experience helping with the NFAA Academy! I had a good time working with everyone and going over the video analysis with Michael Price and Tate Morgan! Thank you to everyone who attended the camp and the other coaches and pros who make the camp possible. I’m already looking forward to the next one!”

Make Your Weakness

Your Strength

By Terry Wunderle

O

ne of my 3-D students walked off the course and said, “It was ugly. I didn’t shoot good form in that wind.”

“Did your mental program break down?”

I inquired.

“You know it did,” he replied. “The wind kept beating on my body and I was worrying about it.”

This is a common occurrence for most archers. They know what they are supposed to do to execute a good shot, but their mental process breaks down when they are placed in an awkward situation.

Negative thinking takes over and their confidence erodes.

How do you avoid this problem? You do it by practicing and mastering what causes you the most difficulty. If you want to be the best possible archer, always work on the weakest part of your game and make it into a strength. If you continue this practice and improve, you will soon discover that what had been a flaw has become the strongest part of your game. If you are not shooting perfect scores, there will always be a weakness to improve.

When you compete in a tournament, record your shots and try to make note of why you dropped points. Note body position, such as uphill or downhill, and foot position, such as heels or toes pointing uphill or downhill. If yardage estimation was the problem, record the distance of the target, the target setting, the terrain, and the lighting conditions. Good record keeping will help you identify your weakness so the problem can be corrected.

Archers often prefer to practice what they are best at doing. In most cases, this includes shooting targets under calm conditions on level ground. Shots like these only make up a small fraction of those that an archer will face on a good 3-D course. Being able to perform well on a flat surface does not mean that it can be easily achieved in the 40 ARCHERY MAGAZINE

n

Third Quarter 2018

rolling hills. In my shooters’ schools, I’ve had archers who are sure they can make all five shots on a five-spot target. Their first shot is done in the usual manner. Then I bring out a small ramp with a twenty-five degree incline for the next four shots. By rotating the ramp after each shot, I simulate uphill, downhill, side hill with toes downhill, and side hill with toes uphill. This exercise quickly points out the level of their abilities in shooting uneven terrain. A small ramp is a good tool to have on a flat practice range. However, the best training is to take a portable target to some rolling ground and begin working. Use all of the foot positions until you can shoot them as well as you can on an even surface. This kind of exercise will raise your confidence and your ability to shoot tight groups.

When people tell me they have trouble

shooting in the wind, I usually ask them when they last practiced in the wind. The typical answer is that they haven’t. Then when faced with windy conditions, they are very uncomfortable mentally and cannot execute a good shot. Learning to master wind and hill shots is not easy, and most archers prefer not to practice under those conditions because their groups open up.

True, even with practice, your groups on a windy day will never be as tight as on a calm day. However, they will be much closer than they would have been if you had not practiced.

Serious archers work hard to identify and eliminate each weakness from their game.

Then they can confidently walk onto the course with the attitude, “They cannot set a target that I won’t 10.” n
