Undecided on a great many things
I got my daughter out yesterday shooting her compound. She wishes to be a better archer and was shooting at the bag but is scattered around on it and not happy with her shooting. I keep telling her "Aim small and miss small" but she never seemed to get it.
So yesterday since we live on a hill I take one of the dogs tennis balls and throw it to 18 yards maybe. She was either hitting it or drilling all around it. It really raised her confidence level. I kept telling here, learn your yardage, don;t rely on your range finder when a deer shows up but rather use it to know how far this tree and that tree are for reference. Plus the ball never lands at he same distance.
Then she texts her BF to tell him how much better she got and all she gets is a "Don't shoot your arrows in the ground".
So, isn't is ok to shoot carbon arrows in the ground as long as they don't hit rocks? I shoot wooden shafts in the ground all the time and used to do it with aluminum years ago.
