ARCHERY

Archery is one of Doug's hobbies that has been neglected over the past few years.  The other day we looked up how to make a target butt on You Tube.

We had a half barrel and one of his grandsons brought some plastic wrap around for him and he made a target.



The half barrel is tightly packed with the plastic wrap then covered with either hessian or, in this case, a piece of tarpaulin as that is what we had available.




                                             





Not bad after not having used his bow for a while.

  1. Great target, and such good sighting for the arrows to strike in that circle of 9's and a 10 or two!!!

    1. He enjoys his archery and, hopefully will make time for it now.

  2. I've always liked the idea of archery myself. I did think I'd buy some basic kit for the boys when they're here.

  3. He is still a very good shot. Do you have an archery club near you?

    1. Yes, there is a club but he has not joined it. May do in the future.
