Karma Tales Archery Camp at Mayacama



Nestled in the hills of northern Sonoma County, California, not far from the charming town of Healdsburg, Mayacama is a private golf and residential community where a vibrant club life is joined by an active sporting life in an indescribably beautiful valley.

Mayacama contracted Hannah Gart of Karma Tales to teach an archery class to some of their members.

While she was teaching, she filmed her young students, and later edited the footage into the video above. When we teach we often use the camera and playback abilities of our phones to show the new student what their form really looks like. It's easier than bringing a full sized mirror out into the field.

Hannah Gart of Karma Tales taught a two day Archery Kids Camp at Mayacama. The video features Lauren and Lilly on their second day of Camp!

Rinehart 9 Inch Field Target Review



rinehart rft cu

The 9 inch Rinehart Field Target, or RFT for short, is a target that was designed to be taken anywhere. Rinehart's website proclaims the RFT, the ultimate go-anywhere practice partner.

Hannah and I use ours behind our house on an old abandoned railway line. It is a breeze to carry with you.

It's made out of the same stuff as the Rinehart 18 - 1. I've had my 18 - 1 for 10 years, and it's still stopping arrows today, so I'm confident that this 'toss'able version will last for awhile.

It's got a heavier flat base, they say it has a lump of sand in there. This is to insure that the RFT always lands upright and ready. The RFT was made to be thrown.

Stump shooting is great, but in my experience, if you're loosing expensive arrows regularly, you won't go that often. Instead of looking for stumps to shoot, that could be thick on all sides with brush and undergrowth, now I'm looking for suitable backdrops that will stop my arrows if I miss this portable target. I find missing to be inevitable...

I'm shooting 50 pounds of draw with a 125 grain field point, and the RFT can easily stop my arrows. It was built to withstand the much faster feet per second modern compounds and crossbows, so all of you shooting traditional equipment will not shoot through this little target.

You just can't beat such a versatile little target for under 40 bucks. I ordered mine from 3Rivers Archery supply and I got them within a week. Throw it in the car, or down a hill, the Rinehart Field Target will always land on its base, and always give you something to shoot at.
