Style: Adult Make Bow Hunter Freestyle Limited
Equipment: Shane shoots BHFSL. For Target and Field he shoots a PSE Millenium set at 62 pounds with 2213 X7’s. For 3D and Hunting he shoots a PSE Silhouette (Custom) set at 63 pounds with 2213 X7’s.
Personal: Shane serves as the current Vice-President of the Club. The VP is primarily responsible for membership. Shane has been coming to Skookum for the last 30 years, but I has only been a club member for about a year. He is also the current president of Boeing Archers. He said he joined Skookum so he could help promote it.
Shane’s Practice Tips: "When practicing I try and work on the areas or situations that cause me the most trouble for the type of tournament I have coming up (e.g. Shooting in the wind, severe uphill/downhill shots, yardage estimation, etc.). I also try to keep the number of changes (this includes new equipment) to a minimum. This allows me more time to concentrate (and boy do I need it) on shooting and less on bow fiddling.
One of the greatest thrills Shane has received from archery was teaching his 2 girls how to shoot and watching them grow in the sport. It brought back memories of his father teaching him and his brothers and he was their age.
