I was shooting really well this was about ten yrs ago. Like I said I was going through a period where it seemed I could not miss. I got cute and was picking smaller and smaller spots on my target. Well I decided I was going to shoot a cricket that jumped on my target it was only about a inch from the outer right edge of my target. I drew let it fly and my heart sank the arrow caught the outer edge of the target and in the blink of an eye and about 70 yds later my arrow was in my neighbors deck. Thank god no one was in the yard or on the deck. I never shot in that direction again. Yes I did have a good back stop and this is a wooded area. Just a freak accident.

Small propane bottle when I was practicing in the basement, what can I say cept I got tired & stupid, house stank of propane for over an hour.

My house, well it has the scar to let me know that 2 panels of 3/4" ply board is not enough back stop to stop an arrow.

Had a target frame I had made out of pipe a number of years ago. Hung the targets from the top and tight to the bottom. I only had so much pipe so it was a bit narrow.

Worked well for months with out an incident. I was shooting out around 30 yards and flat shanked one; off the pipe through the garage window then mysteriously found its way past the brush guard and around way more grill parts than I realized where there and into the radiator of the Truck.

I have a large back stop behind my target now.

The Kitchen cabinet door. I can get 16yds from the living room to the kitchen sink. I stuck two through a homemade target into the cabinet door.

Caleb the bow breaker

missed the target and hit the garage wall.  Not a huge deal.  Arrow went through the wall and punched a hole in the brand new metal door that I was about to hang.  Oops.  Guess I know I am getting good penetration. LOL

This has to be one of the funniest post i have ever seen.I only was testing how far and arrow would travel when i was younger and it went right on top of my uncle porch roof.It was hard to explain.But my uncle Fred just knew better.

Brand new garage door (from the inside).  Went through my supposed backstop and left a nice little pencil of sunlight...

I shot my barn many times but the worst was the neighbors slider----I thought I had a good backstop until I sent on off the back of my 3-d deer. The arrow then got even more arc when it glanced off the woven wire fence. I horror I watched in slow motion as the arrow arced another 75 yards and pierced the screen of the neighbors slider and came to a rest hanging there at eye level. Thank God no body got hurt. I don't shoot there anymore.
