Default Basement range






Here's my new basement range. I can shoot almost 7 yards woo hoo! I figure it'd be good practice regardless, shootin's shootin. I think it's perfect for "blind bailing". I just put the pin on the center, close my eyes, and feel through the shot. I think it's helped already. The beauty is I shoot at least a dozen arrows a day now.

When, not if, I hit it, I will definitely post a pic. I'm more worried about my $600 RC airplane sitting on the workbench on the right.
