RE: Post 1 thing you learned today
GMMAT-I may be small but I sure am smaort-I am starting my 52nd year of Bowhunting Biggame & still enjoy it. I shot my 1st Deer with a bow in 1958 when I was 15.
I even go hunting hogs when it's 95 dagrees & drive 14-16 hours just to get into the woods to hunt them-just got back 1st week of June with TWO. I know when to fold em (now) since I lost a car in a poker game once. I guess I know lots of things after this many years-just to stupid to always follow directions.
Good Luck to all this season....
Oh, what did I learn today-MY FAMILY is "STILL" the most important thing in my life....

Winning isn't everything, but when you lose WInning is everything. Lost a champion club trap shooting match ( team event ) today. The team that beat us has alot lower average then us, gudos to them, feeling a little down right now but there is always next year.

Not to shoot my bow in my backyard. Okay, I am a really good shot, but an arrow got away from me and went throughmy neighbors woodenfence with a G5 broadhead.[:@][:-]
It really shook me up, because if someone had been in that yard it could have killed them. I have never had this happen until tonight and I've been shooting forever. However, I will never risk that again. I'm only shooting in an open field behind my house from now on. I just can't get over it!!!

We've all made mistakes, be thankful that nothing incredibly bad happenend. You learned a lesson and were humbled. You are obviously beating yourself up, and posted here knowing that the possible flames you may recieve, could not make you feel worse. I take my hat off to you, for your sincerity and humility.

Guys, Iknow you may not think you'll ever miss your target that bad, but pleasesetup abig solid backstop.Once again, I'mjust reallyrattled and very thankful that nothing bad happened. For me, I will never againshoot in the backyard.Thanksagain for the wordsGR8!!!
