I was stump shooting with my bow around a high mountain swamp. I shot at a mound of peat by the shoreline. Immediately it startled something nearby in the water. There was rapid underwater movement (as evidenced by rapid, erratic bumping of underwater sedges and such) along with a jet of water spraying up about 2-3 feet, maybe a pencil in size spraying straight upward, with a weird noise. The noise sounded like an antelope buck or maybe a high pitched kazoo. It lasted maybe 5 seconds. I have never seen or heard of such a thing before. Swamp has no fish. Cannot understand the noise and straight upward jet of water. Anyone has any ideas?? Did you stick around, or booked it out of there ? Stranger things have happened. Google >> Natural gas leak at Indian Hills Golf Course Lambton Shores Canada Try a google on Marsh gas too, if you were shooting at peat

Who in their right mind shoots pieces of wood with their arrows? Either you have so much money that broken and lost arrows don’t matter (which is great) or you haven’t heard of a block target. A block target is this cool foam target that you shoot your arrows into so you can easily pull them out and shoot them again and again and again without damaging your arrows and pocket book. Just ask your husband to get you some more arrows.

Jurassic Park, not everyone is a good money manager like you.
Or a dialled in archer 365 a year, lol. Hey, you ever pick up a gun and forget how to look through the scope? Me neither. Ever pick up a bow and forget how to look through the peeps? Me neither. If you answered yes, than God help you. Lol

I loath to grace this comment with a response, I suspect you're just trolling, but suffice it to say planning for a gun hunt without doing some shooting is a bad idea. Bow hunting without practice is a bad idea and simply unethical. Every serious bow hunter knows it.

I just go out with the gun and shoot signs,insulators,stumps,whatever to get ready to hunt.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
