my first week or 2 i shot 1000s of arrows...no joke. before work..after work...all day on days i didnt work. literally 100s of arrows a day. to make a long story short i jacked up my shoulder and couldnt draw my bow let alone shot it. for about a week or 2. i never got tired or sore or anything...never had a problem holding steady etc...id shoot 10 or 20...jump in the pool...shot 20 more..cut a little grass..shoot more..get a drink..shoot more..eat lunch..id do that all day. the beauty of having a 40yd backyard range i guess. convinent...leave the targets out there and shoot when i got a few minutes. so i never got sore or fatigued or anything...but man after a week or 2 of literally 1000s of arrows my shoulder quit. said no more. i learned my lesson

i was in a rush because it was july or so and i just got my first bow. had to get good enough to hunt by the end of august..when id be back to college and only shooting on weekends so i over did it to make up for less time to shoot...

also wore out a string in short order!

this year im just going to take it easy...shot no more then 50 a day when im off or so...still alot more than some guys but i should be fine with that..but that wont be EVERY day...ill work most days and not get to shoot much..and now i only shoot weekends when im not at college and i already started shooting about a month ago...no rushing this year!!
