So I've always wanted to do this, and be good at it, and last summer I got to try it out and really enjoyed it.
Anyone here know anything about it? Going to buy a good bow and target this summer. No idea where to look of where to start. Probably need some lessons

This isn't 1/5th as strenuous as shoveling snow.

Haha:)
I think after a few hours, it might be. On the back arms and especially the fingers.
It's probably really expensive to get into.
I hope not.

Just make sure to only do it at outdoor ranges. I would hate to see your thread get moved.

On the bright side, if you miss you could always hit your crazy neighbor.

I forgot to tell you!!
He said to my boyfriend a couple months ago 'tell the other fella I'm sorry. I made his life hell' then a few weeks later the pub 3 doors down that is connected to his building, got sold. And we haven't seen him ever since. Looks like he's sold up and moved on!
Happy days!!

He was scary. I didn't wanna hit him.

Warehouse, the Phoenix park is where I walk my dog. Huge herd of deer in there. It's a huge park though.
And I've never had venison....
