First Robin Hood!
« on: August 12, 2012, 07:38:00 PM »
Hi Gang,

I decided to try shooting some arrows tonight in my yard. I had surgery last month and this was my second time trying to shoot since the surgery. On my 3rd shot, (I only shot 5 arrows yesterday) I see and hear my arrow hit the one I shot before. I didn't think anything of it since I do get lucky and shoot some tight groups when the archery Gods allow. When I went to recover my arrows I noticed that the nock was broken on the arrow and upon a closer look I noticed the arrow was actually split! You can see where the tip of my arrow struck inside the nock splitting the arrow.

I'm like on cloud 9 right now. Been shooting archery for 15 years and have never got a Robin Hood!

congrats!
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.
