Default Embarrassed

Well you remember I said I didn't know much at all about bow hunting?

Here is the embarrassing proof,

I was using the wrong part of the sight pins,[&o]

You know how they have the tip,then they have the fiber optic around the pins at the side close to the base of the sight,Well I was using the part at the base,Where the fiber optics wrap around the pins[&o]


I know I'm am dumb.

But I just used the pin tips,And I moved the sight over where it was in a perfectly straight line with the arrow,And All 3 shots at 10 and 20 yards where in the bullseye,30 was a bit wide,But I will work on that later,I'm just glad I got the 20 yard set.lol.Would've been done sooner,If I wasn't a former blonde.lol.

Don't feel bad, you are not dumb (you are a bowhunter) -- there was a time when all of us were green, I've been there myself.

Just don't look down the barrel when the bow is loaded.

That must have been hard to aim and shoot--with the rest of the pin and sight housing cluttering your view?

NOW THAT TOOK BALLS..

That shows me what kind of MAN you are.

Not many people will admit to stuff like that.

I remember when I first started hunting and I had a release. I had no idea how it worked. I kept trying to get it to hook on the nock of the arrow..
WOW...

good luck. if you ever have any questions.. LET THEM FLY
