I usually shoot most days after work for anywhere from 15-100 arrows while playing outside with the kiddos. Well my shooter 3D target finally fell completely apart (I DO NOT suggest buying one, it only lasted 2 months. ) so I was just shooting at the plastic whiffle balls. Then I saw a pink plastic kids bracelet and decided to see if I could "ring" it.
I started at 20 yds.
 
I was pretty happy with that.
So my next round was to be from 10 yds
 
So that was the first and only shot at ten. I then went to 15 yds
 
Almost, but no cigar. So I shot another round at 15
First 3 were and inch or two high and 3" left, no Idea why, next one just right then!!!
 

So now I moved back to 32 yds.
 
Let's have a moment of silence for the brave princess bracelet that valiantly gave her life for my enjoyment. First and only shot at 32 yds

So I'm feast out of bracelets and went back to my whiffle balls. I figured I'd shoot another round before going in for the evening.
Shot was from 30 ish yds.
 

NOTE: white ball when hit was 10yds past because it launched with my arrow, I picked it up and moved it for photo only.  

Some days your on, others not so much. Today was a good day.

And now for the glory shot. I was using my JD Berry Misty Dawn for today's fun

I have a 35yd point on so the 32 yd shots aren't that hard with this set up.

This proves that archery and bracelets DO NOT get along

Great shooting and great fun!

Adds more excitement.  Now, if you can only find a pink bracelet wearing, whiffle ball holdin', game critter at 32 yds!!

Bob,
Do you have any leads in where those critters are? If so let me know HA HA.

James,
Yes this was a very scientific experiment and the results are uncontested, they do not get along. Plus my daughter wasnt happy about it either.
