Default Robin Hooded an arrow yesterday.

My first time ever shooting a bow was 5 days ago. On the fourth day of owning/shooting a bow I Robin Hooded an arrow.

This thread isn't about arguing the merits or if unintentional stikes count. I'm just showing what happened.

As you can see, the first shot was very close to dead center and shot 2 followed suit.

I've heard of this phenomina being documented before, but only when the target was an effigy of an ex-wife. Congrats, you have changed history.

That really is pretty fantastic when you think about it. Unfortunately (at your age) what are the odds of you ever doing it again in your lifetime.

This will happen more than you think. I'm not an arrowist. However I used to be on a dart team. It wasn't all that rare to have this happen. Still since you were shooting for that lower left bullseye you done good. Have a beer on .......well on yourself I guess.

I've never done that. Have placed many arrows thru deer. Now I'm hooked on my Crossbow's power with a mounted yardage scope. Shooting carbon bolts with mechanical broadheads. Squirrel Crusher
