Title: Why aren't you hitting the target?
Post by: Arrowind on February 03, 2013, 07:12:55 pm

Thought you guys might like a laugh.  I was out in the yard doing some shooting and my six year old daughter says, "Why aren't you hitting the target dad?!"   I love how kids are so honest and don't hold back.... :laugh:

For the record I WAS hitting the "target" it's just that SOME  ::)  of the arrows were not quite hitting the exact middle...

She expects nothing less than a bullseye every time and she will keep you honest. ;)

Oh yeah, brutally honest. My sons always lay it out for me like "dad, did you try to hit the edge and tear the feathers off?" Or "that would be a good shot if it hit on over a little". Gotta love em!

That's when you tell them to start running downrange cause you work better with a moving target  >:D

LOL, my step son told his 4 year old son he better start to listen. The 4 year old said, did you listen when you was little:) LOL Dad didn't know what to say then..

My favorite is "well if your deer was laying down you would have hit it"

I was shooting in the garage with the boy and he missed the target and hit the wall barely stuck. His eyes got real big like he was in trouble with that face like "I'm done!" I said don't worry we won't tell mom.
A few rounds later I did the same thing except mine buried to the fletch. He looks at me and says " "don't worry. We won't tell mom". I lost it.

Cool story Arrowind!!

  Went to a couple 3-d shoots this summer with son and grandson.  Grandson (4 1/2)  started saying stuff like "your going to hit that tree" and "don't hit the rock".....seemed like when we would get to full draw. >:D 

  Trash talk can start anytime I guess!! 8)   Maybe he got it from his son and Papa!!
