Bottoms Up for more shooting!

Well – I had pretty much shot up my targets to the point that they would not stop my arrows from passing through no matter which side I shot at.

Due to a shortage on funds following a major car malfunction – I was forced to aim small at the few square inches in the corners of the targets that would still stop the arrow.

Then I had a thought – what about the bottom. I stacked the two targets where the bottoms became the new front and I am back in business! Not sure why this simply thought has never crossed my mind before. The bottom and top for that matter triples the life of your target!

That’s a sober way to look at “bottom’s up”:D

Or maybe I’ll just butt out of this one……:wink:

Good thinking Cameron………

Way to use them up! Those foam targets are expensive. I’m going to try the horse stall matt behind bales next, ala Steve Graf. A 3×4 matt is on sale for $20 at tractor supply so I’ll pick one up and give it a try. Best. Dwc

Hey David, I’m going through a slump right now so I’d be best off buying two, to get 6×8. That’d make my fence and neighbors feel a bit more secure. 🙄

Ha! I’m cheap so I’ll stand close! ➡

I think with what was going on with me today that I need to work on being sneaky more than shooting so I can get close enough to poke a deer with a sharp broadhead with plenty of EFOC. 😡

Guess you can guess I had a bad shooting day. Otherwise OK. Me and another feller set up some 3D targets at the range and had the Boy Scouts out. 39 boys shooting.

Entertaining at the least:D.

This is the 4th year I’ve done this and we’ve gained from 15 to nearly 40.

There is hope!!!!!!!!

Cheers! Bottoms up…………….

That’s a great effort! No wonder you were shooting bad with so much to take care of.

My guess is most of us spend more time on shooting than on sneaking. I know I’m guilty of that. I’m pretty sure I can hit pretty well 15 and under , but getting that close is the bigger challenge.

I like Grumpy’s two-step! Dwc
