Title: Orange Anyone?
Post by: DHOWARD on March 22, 2016, 08:04:00 PM
I thought that I would have a little extra fun during practice for the Tradgang Virtual Shoot so today I decided to shoot my fruit.  I placed an orange on top of one of my targets at 18yds and was amazed at the focus that I had while shooting the thing.  Below is my first 4 shots.  Now can someone help me figure out how to get shoot organizers to place an orange over the ten ring on every 3D target.  It truly is amazing how our mind and body work together when you add the element of focus.  By the way my arrows all have a wonderful orange smell now.

I remember, a good while back, my hunting buddie and I decided to shoot at rolling Hedge Apples (Osage tree balls-the big green ones!) It only took us a few arrows to figure out all that sap residue was tough getting off our hands, arrows, bows, and clothes !!! I haven't shot at one since.  Although you don't have to take my word for it. Problem is they're only around in the fall time...He! He!   Horserod

that's kinda funny, I find that I shoot much better at "objects" than dots on a target... not sure why, maybe its easier to concentrate on a three dimensional object than a flat dot?

We have no open season on fruit here so I've always let them pass.  Mosquitoes are another story, I have three in the freezer right now.     :D
