Gees Dave, I started laughing out loud before I realized how much that had to hurt!!!  I'd have to take a sledgehammer to that thing......

Ok that is very funny!!! We have a traditional shoot here in SD once per year where everyone makes a homemade target. Many of the targets are really cheesy but it is always fun. So one year I step up to the shooting line to see a gigantic spider which is the next target. The thing really looked awesome! Heres the catch, the minute you dead center the "spider" with an arrow you discover the "spider" is a bowling ball and the legs are made of rebar painted balck!!! Both funny and seriously expensive at the same time!
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

The only time it was unbearable was when I couldn't get my hunting boots on this morning. Now if not for the purple toenail you wouldn't know I'd done it.

Why do we laugh when someone stubbs their toe?????

We're so happy it wasn't our toe.

Sounds like you should be going in for an X-ray.

Not much they can do with a broken toe.

Purple, eh? Stay outta the gym for a while.  ;)

Actually Killie my toe almost looks normal now. I heal fast everywhere except for my stinking side for some reason.

Maybe if you hit your side with the bowling ball it'll take a hint.   :saywhat:  
So, ya going hunting soon? (we have to keep this thread hunting-related, or I hear that that overzealous hardnosed mod will pull it.  :eek:  )

I thought you were going to tell us you plunked the soccer ball with a blunt and the arrow did a 180 and came back for your head.

but your story is more funny...get well soon.

Wouldn't have done an arrow any good had you whacked with a judo instead of your foot...  :scared:
