aerial target the first time
« on: April 05, 2009, 05:55:00 PM »
We had very nice weather yesterday so I took advantage of it. Decided to try my hand at shooting at some aerial targets. Put some field points on a few flu-flu shafts and got my daughter to throw for me.  

We took a gallon bottle like windshield washer fluid comes in and walked out to a neighbors field who lets me use it anytime I want. She stood a bit over 20 feet away and tossed them up about the same distance.

What a blast. Didn't expect to do that good since it was the first time. She tossed them up a total of 12 times and I got 4 hits out of that. Missed all of the first three.    :(   I don't feel I did that good considering the size and distance of the target but for a first time I guess I did OK. Would have shot a lot more but the ribs on my grill were screaming for attention.    :)    

I know it was enough fun I plan on doing it some more. Be awhile before I am ready to try aspirin tables but plan on having a lot of fun trying to work down to them

Shooting at aerials is a blast. If I ever hit one would even be better.
