Please indulge me...

I was shooting right before dark the other night and look what happened...a Robin Hood!  My daughter was with me and wanted me to shoot at the upper right white dot.  The first two fliers were snap-shooting.  The next two were anchored and ended up touching...then the third was the winner.  It was only from about 18 yards with my cheap Samick Sage bow (45#).  But I love that bow and I'm thinking of getting a second set of limbs at 55#.  Thanks for letting me share...

The only thing missing would be the aroma if you had used cedar!

As you get better you will learn to aim beside the first arrow and not be hitting it.A lot cheaper that way.   :D  

Drawing smily faces with your arrows instead of groups not only makes you pick a spot instead of focusing on the arrows in the target but saves you lots of arrows over the year.     :)

Very nice!

At last years traditional shoot at my archery club I shot the rinehart black bear target at 25 yards dead center 10 ring. My friend steps up and Robin hoods my arrow. What made it so great is that I had hit the 10 ring perfectly ( which is a miracle for me ) and he comes up and slams it home.

Mr. Wrenn, Rod Jenkins once sent me a pic of a target. I had successfully goaded him into making a smiley face.   :D

Great shooting at 18 yards! Glad I'm not that good!   :biglaugh:
