Adventures in Traditional Archery
Relatively significant happenings have occured in the past couple of days. Yesterday I went to a pro-shop "going out of business sale." I picked up a 5" shield cut feather chopper for $8, some muzzy bowfishing supplies for cheap, including a pretty cool reel seat. Found a Zebco 808 in my basement that will work well as a bowfishing reel. I shot the Detroit archers traditional tournament, and met Chessbum for the first time. I shot 3 rounds, and only did moderately well on the one that didn't count. Came home and found that my dad bought me a sewing machine motor for $7 so I can make a crester. Chopped a bunch of feathers. I need to hurry and make my crester because I broke 2 of my arrows at the shoot, and tore up the fletching on 2 more. And for the record, I beat Floxter on my secong round of shooting ( bad thing was he was shooting someone else's bow<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>), and I beat Chessbum by 1 in the money shoot<img src=icon_smile_blush.gif border=0 align=middle>. The winner only beat me by about 100 in a 200 possible shoot. I think that is about all. I think I will go take another nap now.
