Title: Check out my accidental trick shot
Post by: el greco on June 02, 2013, 09:23:00 PM
Did some back yard work today and gathered the bags in front of my targets.So at one point I decided to take a break and do some shooting.I went to shoot from my usual spot which is by the fence about 20 yards from the deer,hoping that the bags would give me a clear shot.  (http://i1065.photobucket.com/albums/u384/elgreco1981/P6030111_zps5cb571a9.jpg) (http://s1065.photobucket.com/user/elgreco1981/media/P6030111_zps5cb571a9.jpg.html)

(close up shot) Well they didn't and I was too tired and bored to move them so I decided to shoot through them and see what happens.So I aim at the bags,which were about 12 yards from me,release,and..the first arrow in a perfect arch cleared the bags and went towards the target.I aimed a little lower thesecond time,but same thing.The arrow cleared.Third arrow same thing.I walked to the target and here is what I saw...

Mind that the last three months I haven't shot more than 4 times and in the little shooting I was all over..Maybe I should leave those bags there indefinetely?

It is easier to shoot a nice group at 12 than 20 yards apparently regardless of where they land.   :D

Fun.  It is amazing the arc that you don't see without something to shoot over.

I had an old timer tell me "that's why they call it archery and not straightery".
