Crossbow Practice

Post by Vahunter »

I pulled out the crossbow yesterday to prctice a little for bow season. I had shot 2 bolts and had a good tight group at 30 yards. I decided against my better judgement and tried a third shot. Most people would be thrilled to have done this but all i could see was $14.00 wasted. I dead centered one bolt with another.

Wait! Didn't the Myth Busters PROVE that that can't be done? (Saw another guy do it as well with a regular recurved bow)

I was at Henry's house right after he pulled this out of his butt and the only reason I believe that he did it is because his purty wife Sherrie said he did. LOL

Good thing it wasn't one of those new lighted shafts.

Nice shot, though.

good problems to have...NICE shot!
Be particular, and be vigilant, as the enemy will only attack on two occasions:
When you're ready or when you're not ready.

Also never forget, that everyone who shows up, is not necessarily there to help.
