what have you shot at home accidentlly

[lbshooter]

Testing broad heads at a slope in my yard I puctured an underground irrigation line.  When I pulled my arrow out I got mud blasted from the water stream.

Had a pesky possum coming to the back porch, killed the possum and the air conditioner coil all in one. Dang, that was a costly experience!!

The neighbors house. oops...

I had just gotten my first custom T/D bow,a Chastain Wapiti and I could'nt wait to shoot it. We lived in the midwest at the time and it was below zero. The wife went to work and my son was in bed ,so I got the idea to shoot down the hallway into my bag target. All went well until I missed the target on the first shot and put the arrow to the fletches ,through the bedroom door. After the panic ,I found some of those round wood grain decals from some cheap piece of furniture and put them over the holes. All was well the wife never noticed or so I thought. Many years later I was shooting in the back yard and my wife told me to be careful as we don't need holes in anything again.

A can of deck stain under my work bench behind my bag target.   At least my garage floor is well sealed!

As a kid,I shot my brothers pet cat that was in the weeds behind our target. Did'nt even know it was there. I missed the target,cat came out running like heck. died by the edge of the driveway. Then around that same time,a month or two before I think,my brother was shooting at a target we had rigged up. I was dumb enough to be standing off to the side of it about 20 feet from it. Thought that was good enough. He shot,I watched the target,no arrow,then pain,then realized he had shot through my foot,and pinned it to the ground.  Good times.   rat'

ALMOST FORGOT!! True story guys...My brother and I had these 2 friends that lived down the road from us. They were brothers to. Dan and Justin. Anyway,they went hunting. It was dark o'clock. Dan decides to go to Justins tree and walk out with him. Dan didn't have a light on. Just walking through the woods at night like....A DEER! Well,you guessed it. Justin drew his bow,Dan later said he heard the wheel creak on the bow and thought that Justin had "A SHOT" so he stopped and was quiet as to not spoil it for him. Well...Justin shot him,right throughthe forearm. Dan yelled,Justin jumped out of the tree,sprained his ankle,but was able to get a turnakit on Dan,and get to the Emergency room. Both of them.   rat'

Scary .... that could have ended like the cat ...

With a bow I have shot a garbage can, the floor many times, a door, a laundry rack, a chair, and the cement wall in the basement.

In the backyard the composter and fence have both been hit many times with both arrows and atlatl darts.

The slingshot has taken out a fish tank (luckily empty) and the barbecue window.  

The blowgun has hit a shelf when the dart skipped, and a jug of linseed oil.

[bendotwood]

Forgot to mention I shot a tackle box and a rubbermaid bin too.  My 18-1 had some soft spots in it.

[recurve_shooter]

As I think about it, not very much.  The only things I can reall are an aluminum toolbox and plastic dog box (thankfully it was empty at the time).  Both shots skipped off the top of the target.

Now if you just count arrows lost that didn't hit anything...I'm glad I don't know the true number, it would be embarrassingly high!

[ishoot4thrills]

I accidentally hit the target every once in a while.....      :p        :D

Lets see- my shed, steel tool cabinet, a black widow hanging on my cloths line, a squirrel which jumped in front of my target as I shot, it committed squirrelacide, cellar wall, tent, a car- there's more after 50 plus years but you get the idea.

[KyRidgeRunner]

Shot an old wardrobe cabinet in my basement once.....  You wouldn't think a 5/16th whole would be that noticeable, but my wife disagreed!

[awishanew]

Shooting in back yard and shot high. Skipped up and through the bush and hit the neighbors greenhouse but luckily it was the plywood wall, 3 in. lower than the glass.

A friend just sent me this one a few days ago.   Here's the text message that accompanied it:

"Lesson learned. Have EVERYTHING covered when shooting."

 

[pamike]

Shot through my snowmobile trailer an into wall of my shed. Luckily it missed the snowmobiles.

[bruinman]

Lol, I shoot down the hall at my house, but so far I have not missed my target. I have, however stuck a couple in the wall in my office at work.

I always new the Gang was honest; this thread proves it again!
