I got to finally shoot the bow I was loaned.
It as I have said is about 64" and 48# @ 28", it is a glass laminated longbow.
I practiced stringing it up and unstringing, simple stuff but newbies have to learn sometime.
Then I went out and used an old cardboard dresser I have had since childhood and set it up as a target in the wifes carport in our driveway. I at the advice of my daughter put the garbage cans behind it to avoid holes in the tarps on the carport, and matching holes in my hide
This proved to be a good idea
as my second arrow went a bit high and skimmed the dresser and struck the garbage can shield, no worries it will live.
i put four arrows down range at about 8yrds before calling it quits. It was dark and the freezing drizzle was cold, and besides my driveway is on a main artieral and I figured all the people driving by watching me might not be a good thing. Don't need some doo gooder calling the cops cause some "crazied maniac" is wielding and "assualt bow" and attacking defenseless garbage cans
By the way, the target I drew on the dresser is fine, I missed hitting it complettly, but I am sure it was scarred :eek:
Sorry no pics to share, but it was dark already and I was in a hurry to get done and back inside, to dang much school work, ughhhhh!
hopeing to play more this weekend.
Later
