2008 AMS Bowfishing Pro-Bowfishing Challenge

Posted By jeremy at 4/2/2009 12:00:00 AM

6 Professional video bowfishing teams have arrived here at Ken Bar Lodge on Kentucky lake for this years 3 night Bowfishing Challenge. Water conditions are not quite what they had been in years past, teams are really going to have to work to find fish this year. As with the last two events, teams are scored on the best three filmed fish harvests per night, one of those harvests each night has to be a common carp, which seem to be very scarce this year. After teams checked in, we had our pre tournament meal at the Oasis Resturaunt and teams filmed introductions for the show. Start time was at 10:00 PM. Stay tuned for the first nights results.
