I was up practicing today and noticed there were quite a few chipmunks
outside jumping from hole to hole. Shots varied from 20 to 60 yards,
the only contact was one at about 35 yards, neck shot. Those little
buggers move a lot and fast. I did manage to loose 2 arrows also, but
the fun factor was well worth it

When I get a bow I hope to practice on some ground squirrels and rabbits. Small and fast. That's gotta be good practice for deer hunting. ------------- Somebody better call the Secret Service. Let 'em know there's an illegal alien in the White House...and it ain't the cook!! |

Cool practice! I'm with mrm, I used the judo points during late summer to shoot dandelion heads out in the fields behind my old man's place when I was a kid, great practice. I think that itch on my release finger is starting to act up again ------------- Paritur pax bello - Peace is obtained by war. |

few of them up next trip to the shop. One of those things you know
about but you just aren't smart enough to use
