Bow season is a long ways away!

Tonight after supper Matthew brought out his bow and the fake deer that he uses for target practice.  I think he is just doing it for more practice since bow season is a long time from now (like next fall).
But it is always fun to watch him and to see how often he actually "kills" the deer and how often he only wounds it.
Savannah got a kick out of sitting in her stroller watching her Uncle Matt too.  She doesn't know what the big deal is with shooting all those sticks at a fake deer.  But she knows that watching her Uncle is something that she enjoys.

That poor deer has been through a lot of target practice from a lot of shooters and it is still standing.  Makes me wonder if maybe it isn't tougher than it looks.

"Veronica, on a scale of 1 to 10, how jealous are you that Matthew is able to do archery?" "Like, 15!!!!" I've always wanted to learn archery. I guess I'll just have to come over some day and learn it. :D
