im in the same situation....my backyard is a bit larger....but theres a freakin POOL,shed and garage back there lol......mom says i aint shootin no bow back there!! dad said i could before....but i dont think he thinks im SERIOUS about buying a bow here REAL soon....though he says he may buy one too.....my neighbors wont say anything about me shooting....noone will be at the SCHOOL directly out my back door lol.....itll be summer time..i kinda plan to shoot from the neighbors i DONT really know towards the neighbors that my family knows..and was thinking about a big hay bale wall behind my target....ill eventually have a 3d target.....and a block or bag target to shot....i heard carpet stops arrows pretty good hanging....maybe rig the carpet up so it covers the hay bales...keeps the bales from the weather and also helps stop arrows...i think i have extra carpet laying around too..if not im sure i can find some...im also completely enclosed in a wooden fence....i want to beable to shoot a couple times a day all summer...and take the 3d to the farm and set up a stand and shoot at that for confidence....we will see how it goes....keep the ideas coming guys....im curious too.....
