The Art & Science of IBO 3D Archery: Zakk, Bryan & Cody Harrington

Cody shares his recent experience at the IBO National Triple Crown event in West Virginia, revealing the techniques and strategies used to judge unknown distances in competitive 3D archery.

• Matthews signs Bode Turner, continuing their tradition of recruiting top archery talent
• IBO competitions require judging unknown distances up to 52 yards without rangefinders
• Listening for the time between arrow release and target impact helps judge distance
• Experienced archers use their scope housing as a frame of reference for judging distance
• Competitors must cover their sight tapes to prevent others from seeing their yardage settings
• Target size perception plays a crucial role in accurate distance judgment
• Finding your "20-yard mark" as a reference point is essential for judging longer distances
• Maintaining mental composure after a poor shot prevents the "snowball effect"
• Training with visual markers at known distances (like buckets at 10-yard increments) improves judgment
• Target archery techniques translate directly to hunting scenarios and improve overall shooting ability
