Call me Crazy
 
i like making bow practice more fun by mixing it up a little. having your friend aim the bow while you draw it behind my head. i sat down on my but with my legs out in front, rested the riser on my feet and drew my bow. And then i thought it might be a good idea. you could draw 3x the weight hold your bow alot steadier. to shoot farther. but you would have to be sitting , i'm really not that crazy but just was wondering what you guys thought.

I had a guy tell me that he shot his first deer like that when he was 8 years old. He said that he wasn't strong enough to pull the bow like regular. I told the guy I didn't believe him and that I wouldn't recommend telling alot of people to try it, because I can't see this form of shooting being very accurate to make a clean kill.

When i practice shooting, I like to make things fun to. I get a couple friends and we take turns shooting. The one that gets the closest to the center wins. Usually it turns out to be the one that hits the target wins!:Dlol jk

You know its a reall shame you arrived on earth only a couple thousand years too late to patent the crossbow.

Yeah, you might really enjoy trying traditional equipment, even if just for targets.

and yeah..."you's crazy"

I definitely think you have a little extra time on your hands. You could always wear a patch to change your dominant eye, then learn to shoot a bow with the other arm. That would make it interesting.:D

1) Your'e way past crazy. More like straight-jacket material.

2) I'm not a huge history buff I do believe I saw a program on ancient Chinese archery. They had women who would shoot huge bows while bracing them with their feet. Can anyone confirm that?
