yup. whenever i get that itch i walk outside in the middle of the night, put some food under the flood light, and wait for a coon to come to eat it then i get myself a new hat.

Every night on my days off from work....the urge to step down into the shop and shoot about 30-40 arrows into my large pillow bag. Usually around 8pm at night after a good cigar the urge to shoot hits.
Lately I have pounding the bag with my old Browning Cobra....turkey season just a few short months away.

When I get the urge to shoot I just open the basement door and go downstairs and shoot.

Doesn't matter if it's raining, 90 degrees, snowing, or even dark outside. -I'm pretty lucky right now. It has not always been this way for me.

I appreciate the ease of it. I wish it could be that way for everyone.

I have a front porch 55 feet long, so even when it is bad weather I can observe my craving to shoot, which is most often everyday even sometimes at odd hours.  One reason I shoot mostly a bow in mid 40's weight.

Yep, it happens and something about just kind of makes the stress melt away.

I feel like that now but I've been out of commission with a fever of 104 degrees all week and I'm still pretty weak but I'm gonna give it a try later.  

I've gotten out of bed on several occasions to see how a certain arrow or head flies or to do some tuning or tweaking.  Yep I got it bad.

America   what a great place to be!

I can shoot 8-9 yards in my basement all the time. Too hot or cold I go downstairs! Yeah, there are lots of times I walk down those stairs cuz I just gotta' shoot.....

[NYArrow]

I do it almost every night. I may be 11pm before I get a single minute to myself...and it usually begins knee deep in snow, in 10 degree temps flinging arrows in the dark.

Fellas that have been married a long time will understand this... I woke up in the middle of the night some time ago and walked out of the bedroom. Just then my wife asked, "Where are you going?" I told her I was going outside to shoot my bow in the dark. To my surprise she said, "OK, I understand."

So happy me is out there having a blast.     Only because it is pure truth.
