My wifes been trick shootin!
« on: February 26, 2013, 09:20:00 PM »
Last Friday my wife pulled out her longbow and started shooting in my shop. Her first shot was a bullseye! On her second shot I was watching her form and making sure she anchored real nice and when she let her rip she shot straight through my shop window and the arrow richoched off my truck windshield and ended up across the road in the neighbors field. Since her first shot was a bullseye i can only assume she was trying a trick shot or something??? Wonder if Byron ever did that one??

Did you make suggestion to her, about her form, as she loosed that second shot?

I would have been in fits of laughter at that one,  my wife said that's one reason she married me, cause I tend to laugh at stuff like that and not get mad.

Now, that's funny, right there...since it glanced off the truck windshield and didn't get two windows for the price of one...

That is one impish smile she's got going on.
