The 2016 3D season kicked off last weekend with the ASA’s Hoyt Pro/Am in Foley, Ala. The course was packed all weekend long, with nearly 2,000 archers registered to compete.

Tommy Gomez came in second, with Chance Beaubouef trailing him by just two points to take third.The Open Pro class historically has been considered the pinnacle division at ASA events, but that appears to be changing. While that class featured 53 competitors, the Known 50 division had 112 registered archers – including a few very recognizable spot-target pros.World-class spot archer Jesse Broadwater took the Known 50 class crown, followed by Michael Braden in second and Michael Fryfogle in third.

He finished 55^th.The Women’s Pro podium featured three of the best in the 3D game, with Kailey Johnston taking the top spot, followed by Sharon Carpenter in second and 2015 ASA Shooter of the Year Cara Kelly in third.
