My daughter is an archer. I have asked her this question many times.

Well?? Don't leave us hanging!

She was on a team in Kentucky 6th through 8th grades. She's starting her Freshman year in Iowa.

Her response is sadly always the same. "Dad! I'd get in trouble!"

So what if she wouldn't get in trouble 👀

Keeping focus and not killing is a daily struggle for some. Although I carry a Desert Eagle Mk XIX Action Express 10in barrel loaded with Hornady .50 Cal AE cartridges I have yet to murder.

Yet.

Have you tried using something more accurate than a .50 DE? You'll never kill if you keep missing.

Half the training is shooting the bow.

The other half is burying the intrusive thoughts.

Either they believe in God and are afraid of punishment, or they are atheists and simply do not have any desire to fire arrows into the crowd.

I did an archery lesson not too long ago and that was certainly my biggest fear.

The other people taking lesson's shooting you or you shooting them? Or both at the same time?
