      Lost a couple of arrows lately in high grass shooting at my 14" Rinehart Block (I'll find them eventually; I never give up), but I decided to change up.

      Screwed a bludgeon in my 3555 GT, put a neoprene coozie out at point-on (~60 yards), and proceeded to have the most useful practice I have had in a while.

      Shooting point-on eliminates worries about elevation, whether gap or instinctive.

      If I miss it is form.

      After 2 days, I am scaring the coozie almost every shot, and hitting it pretty often.

      Watching that arrow arc into a 3"x5" target at 60 yards is a kick.

      Yesterday evening, I did a bit of 15-20 yard shooting. Nailed 'em.

      It was ridiculously easy.

      At 60, if I creep forward a half-inch from full draw, I land 3 feet short.

      If I lose focus, I land a foot right or left.

      Good fun.

        Sounds like a blast I'll try it I was doing some just for fun distance shots and I hung II mud flaps off of my bag target and shot at it from 50 yards with a bludgeon and had a lot of fun the arrows just bounced off the mud flaps

                  In the goody box! Good shooting.

                  When you are shooting hot, shoot alot. When you are not, don't!

                          What's an arrow barrier? Is this another name for a backstop?

                            This is a three quarter inch thick 32 feet long and 3 foot high rubber matt that we placed along the back fence to keep the arrows out of the pasture lol arrow barrier is just what I called it when you shoot as bad as I do it gets expensive after a little while lol

                              I see you are venturing past the 30 yard mark....

                              Rubber stall mats are good stuff.

                              That must have been a lot of work. Those things are not light.
