shao,
I was quickly surprised to find that all I was doing was throwing dirt up at the targets we were shooting at. He proceded to show us young'uns how it was done.
I used to a member of a local archery club. One Sunday morning, when no one was at the range, I took my Dad out to shoot a few rounds of lead at the bales of excelsior, since I knew they would stop the bullets.
Slightly to the side of the target in front of one of the bales was a tree stump. My Dad set a can on the stump and couldn't hit it. I hit it with regularity. I told him to shoot at the archery target on the bale so we could see how far his sights were off. He shot at the target and hit the can. After he helped me up off of the ground, he said he was shooting at the can. I said, "yea, right". It was a running joke for years.
I guess the youngun' won that one.
Have fun,
Phil
