A nice day for some stumping
« on: February 07, 2012, 07:10:00 PM »
I went down to friends farm for some stumping today.

It was kind of cool looking at all of the maple trees being tapped for the making of homemade syrup.

 
 
 

God bless,Mudd

Impressive penetration. Just curious, Mudd, what kind of heads are you using?

Roy, glad to see you are able to get out and do some shooting other than the back yard. I'm about ready to do a little stumping trip myself!

Although, I have to confess, we don't have many soft stumps to shoot into where I go.   :D

Thx for sharing Roy.

Well with that first pic, seems like it aint all about penetration this time, more about a "safe" arrow retrieval   :D

The woods was covered up with the sap buckets and I didn't want to take any chances so I moved out into the open pasture where I found an abundance of the cow-pie targets.

I could shoot about any direction and any distance. It was just about perfect since I never once had to consider if it was going to be too hard thus possibly ruining a precious arrow.

I also learned some valuable information while pie stumping.

The pasture is surrounded by large hardwoods and apparently the turkeys love coming out onto the pasture and digging through my potential targets.

Thanks for the laughs, I enjoyed reading your responses.

God bless,Mudd

PS; I refreshed my chew as soon as I knew my intended targets had to change from wooden stump to cow patties.
