JerrySTL ★ Posted March 27, 2020 Share #2 Posted March 27, 2020 I'm sure if you started doing target practice with a gun, close neighbors would freak a little. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to tell from the photo what the neighborhood looks like in relation to the shooting range. I know, as a kid, I often set up the bb-gun target trap in the front yard, and me & my friends would wander the neighborhood with bow & arrows, ninja stars, hatchets, knives, and occasionally a samurai sword. By wander, that included folks fronts and back yards. Folks didn't really GAS back then, I guess. Just RE and friends wandering through - again. Nowadays? I think enough folks have shown they can't be trusted to use common sense, or to GAS about other people, so the rest of us are screwed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old neighborhood, had a neighbor a couple houses down, his fingers slipped and my neighbor right next door ended up with arrow sticking out of his roof.

Our house is a corner lot and we are located on the road that is the entry and exit of our little hood.. I found the little nook in the fence to shoot towards.. makes a nice backdrop in case an arrow goes rogue. distance is roughly 25 yards from me to target..

I wonder where I can get some dense foam and set up a recurve range in my side yard? I have a friend with a range in his back yard, He lives on a creek and there is nothing behind his house.

A recurve does not have the power to go through it at all. you can get a shooting block from Cabela’s easy right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old neighborhood, had a neighbor a couple houses down, his fingers slipped and my neighbor right next door ended up with arrow sticking out of his roof. I did some bow hunting back in the day and found this to be true. (As as aside, I ran into a mountain lion, a bear, long horn cattle, and wild horses while bow hunting. I really wished I was carrying a pistol after seeing the first two. Deer? Not so much.) The Arrow and the Song BY HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW I shot an arrow into the air, It fell to earth, I knew not where; For, so swiftly it flew, the sight Could not follow it in its flight. I breathed a song into the air, It fell to earth, I knew not where; For who has sight so keen and strong, That it can follow the flight of song? Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke; And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Ltdskilz Posted March 27, 2020 Share #15 Posted March 27, 2020 Something about "Ol' KrAzY's got the compound bow hummin' again down at the corner" has just gotta warm up your neighborhood. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
