I was up practicing today and noticed there were quite a few chipmunks outside jumping from hole to hole. Shots varied from 20 to 60 yards, the only contact was one at about 35 yards, neck shot. Those little buggers move a lot and fast. I did manage to loose 2 arrows also, but the fun factor was well worth it 

Stupid people are like a slinky, they don't serve much purpose in the world but they sure are fun to watch tumble down the stairs!

When I get a bow I hope to practice on some ground squirrels and rabbits.  Small and fast.  That's gotta be good practice for deer hunting.

Cool practice!

I'm with mrm, I used the judo points during late summer to shoot dandelion heads out in the fields behind my old man's place when I was a kid, great practice.

I think that itch on my release finger is starting to act up again
