Camp Moment-Archery
Camp moment
Archery
I stepped in. I picked up my bow. I stared at the long blended bow for a brief moment before clicking in the long sharp arrow.
My heart was thumping.
I was about to shoot when . . .“Stop!!!”
You will need to pull the string way back to your mouth.
Trying again I pulled the string back more, but halfway through my hands shook like I could not stand the weight of the bow.
I took a deep breath and tried pulling it back more. I aimed for the target, stood motionless, ‘ I’m never going to make it’ I thought.
Shoot . . .
Expecting to see the arrow a few paces in front of me on the grass I slowly opened my eyes. I was astonished to see the arrow sticking out of . . .the Bull’s eye?
