Sighting

The other day, after FINALLY picking up my bow again after over a year, I was way surprised to find myself shooting decent groups. Heck, I was amazed when the first arrow hit the target!

Yesterday evening as we were preparing to shoot, I spotted a large doe out in our drainfield. I had to do a double take because my first thought was that we only have one 3-D deer target & I know it doesn't reside on the drainfield. haha

The doe watched us for a short bit, but finally got a bit nervous & stamped her feet & then took off. I can't wait until hunting season!

After tweaking my sight a bit, Brian encouraged me to shoot at the 3-D target ... 5 of 7 arrows in the kill zone, with 2 landing a little high above it.

While I still have my eye on a crossbow, it felt nice to shoot the compound. No clue yet what will happen when I try shooting broadheads again.

This and that

1. What's a drainfield? 2. My nephew is working at Dick's Sporting Goods in their guns and arrows and hunting and fishing stuff department. Need anything? He is rigging and selling bows. 3. We are both unemployed. I am not getting anything done except some heavy reading.

Hugs and kisses to you and B
