Default Practicing missing

Took a little trip out to Jordan creek this afternoon over in Indiana. And yes i have a indiana fishing license. Well the water was very clear. I had forgot how tough it is to hit carp in clear deep water. I could watch the arrow go right over the fish. I would aim a little deeper and the same thing. Then aim lower and go under them. Bummer. So finally after bout 15 shots i finally wack one. Then it got cloudy. that was it.

John, you don't need any practice at missing, you're a natural And the hits just keep on rolling.

And why do you think we call you Mrs, Miss, or Missy ? You didn't really think it was because you were female did you?

Yea John, actually I'm being a little too ornery for my own good. As anyone that has ever shot with me knows, that when it comes to wiffing, missing, or pulling a "Grider", no one does it better or can compete in my class. But if you can't shoot straight, you might as well instigate. Feel pity for the poor soul that draws my name.

My arrow always goes where I'm aiming. Sometimes I'm just aiming over fish, under fish, off to the side....

We know there's a reason you like those bigheads Billy. Harder to miss a 30 + lb fish. [8D]
