Practicing at the family beach vacation? Where is the most unlikely place you have been "caught" shooting your bow?

We got kicked out of a holiday inn once for putting a target under the sink and shooting from the sidewalk outside the room.
Heck, it was raining.

I got "that look" from my wife when I put my bow in the car while packing for our trip to the Grand Canyon a few years ago. I did find a shop in a little town near where we were staying!

Almost every time we talk about a vacation destination I ask, "I wonder if there is an archery shop there?" or "I wonder what kind of animals they have to hunt there?".

I get "that look" A LOT!    :goldtooth:

behind the truck at church shooting at some walnuts when my niece was baptized. I was also caught that day with a Pennsylvania Game News magazine stuffed inside my hymnal.

On the back deck of our Summer house at Hilton Head Island.

Wife was laying out in bikini and I was shooting (she was not in path of arrow flight) over the pool into a block target set up at approx. 18 steps!

She will not let me show pics of her laying out with target in background ;(!

Always thought about it on our annual vacation to Hatteras but have not yet. I must say, those dunes along the beach are perfect for it!  I think I'm just going to have to do it next time.

Butchie, we are in Avon North Carolina. You don't need a target in this soft sand. just a couple sea shells. Hot as heck today though. I just got in from the beach. No more sun today!
I have  trip to Wyoming in Sept for whitetails. Plus also in September I have to take my daughter to the college where she will be playing basketball next year. Along with the usual work load, I want to make sure I get enough practice in. It will come up quick!
This new Black widow will do the trick if I clear my mind and shoot it right. Can't be worried about not having enough practice!

Pred80 and Butchie, where are you finding deer in PA to hunt? Our camp is right in 2G, lycoming and Tioga Counties. My god it's been hard to find a deer. I keep trying. It's difficult to be a weekend warrior and go up there and be successful. It is still my favorite place to hunt. Every year I start with renewed enthusiasm. Saw a whopper last year...in bear season!

If we are driving, I usually have a bow packed for some practice and fun!
