target failure
« on: November 19, 2009, 08:53:00 PM »
Had a little accident in the kitchen tonight. My homemade plastic bag target failed and I ended up with two holes in one of the kitchen cabinet doors. Note the two small holes to the right of the target. this should be good when the old lady gets home.

Move the target and blame it on the dog or kids then you'll be good to go. :thumbsup:       :rolleyes:

Thats why I save dead wood borer bees I kill in the summer. Place them on the floor before she gets home and all is good!

I've got about 5 holes in the Hardy plank siding at the back of my garage, several holes in the boxes that hold the Christmas decorations, 2 holes in the plywood Easter Bunny.....anyone for the ol' apple on the head shooting demonstration?

Take the cabinet door off, and tell her you are getting estimates for new cabinet doors.....

I will admit to having put a couple of holes in a motel room wall- damp Kleenex made them almost unnoticeable... Well, it was raining...

There's a door in my garage that looks eerily similar.  Unfortunately the house is a rental and I'm not sure how to fix the hole as the door is metal.  I don't shoot in the garage any more!

You wouldn't believe the number of holes we had in the walls of the Superceder factory! We had a 20 yard inside range, and a huge target that some of us still managed to miss occasionally. I gave all the employees a daily shooting break if they wanted it. Some of them had never shot before, so they had a good excuse. As for the rest of us...
