Title: Why not to shoot indoor w/ "How to" tutorial
Post by: Pon on August 29, 2010, 05:37:00 PM
I don't know if this should be in the PowWow or the Howto section hahaha just kidding, this is a joke so if mods think this is offtopic feel free to remove this thread.

First of all I have learned my lesson and I will never shoot in the house again...............until I get a better target and/or backstop. That being said I got a new bow and just could not resist to go to the range to shoot it so I waited until mom was out of the house, set up a new cheap Delta arrow target, counted 10 steps and let an arrow fly, nothing wrong so I shoot another one, and I hear a BANG!, but the 2 arrows were on the target so I went to retrieve the arrows and found out one of them penetrate so much that it punched a hole on the door behind the target    :scared:  I knew I was in trouble.

So I needed to fix it before mom cameback, and I remebered I had a broken arrow with a very similar stain so I took some slices out of it.
