Got bored shooting the bag at my backyard range....so, I went dumpster diving!
Got some bits and strung them up.
OJ bottle @ 25y, kinda of a stalk-stop-n-shoot thing from different spots. Made a cool sound when hit.
JD bottle? That was hard. Could only see the label. Took 9 trys to get it. First hit was dead on, but it floppd over on it's side cuz of the arrow. Great, and edge shot? I got really lucky and nailed that too. Then it righted itself...and I missed the last shot! Good thing, I prolly would have trashed some shafts.
Recycling is fun!

stovey, I wish I was having fun like you today! Better yet, with you!!! Keep up the good shooting! Waiting to see your "game" targets change to real game.

Stovey, is it on purpose that your target is black/yellow/red, the colours of the belgian flag? Or are you still mad at the Germans?
Is that the trick for such excellent shooting?

So there was a reason for the colours of your target... and I cannot blame you!
On the other hand: you seem to be a rather small guy and when you cannot show you identity card to prove you're allowed to be served alcoholic drinks or you're not accompanied by your parents...
now I think Nike is even selling special shoes to go to Octoberfest. In their advertising they say that these shoes could stand vomiting. So something must have changed between now and the time you were removed from Octoberfest...
