One of my best (or luckiest) shots
« on: August 09, 2011, 05:50:00 PM »
This was in my brother in-laws hunting cabin some years ago. Someone yelled that there was a mouse running along the top of the wall. I grabbed my bow and a blunt arrow and from across the room pinned him to the wall ON THE RUN. If you'll notice, there's a framed picture just below the mouse. I never noticed the picture because I was concentrating on the mouse..   :archer2:  A good shot or just very lucky...you be the judge..   :D

Some times it's better to be lucky than good, but some folks are both ...   :archer2:

LimBender, that is what I would have done!

So, how many pound bow does it take to kill a mouse?  Pure instinct is great when it works ain't it?
