I shot an arrow into the air where it land I know not where

Note to self:     "STICK WITH WHAT GOT A THERE!" 


So today I read a forum about shooting your bow with both eyes open. Sounded logical. I got 4 arrows to hit the target. Number 5 not so much...I am hoping it is lodged in the neighbors tree! I searched and searched but could not find it anywhere! Hopefully its in the tree if not it went across my yard 3 neighbor's yards a two lane road and is in someone else's yard. I still have not heard sirens so no one got hurt, except my wallet that arrow was like $7.00. I think I will keep one eye open looking through the peep. I am getting good at it. 
I also tried out my new wrist sling that my daughter made for me. We learned how to make it on YouTube. So maybe trying two new things at once was too much for me. Hopefully tomorrow all my arrows will hit the mark.


I never did get around to making that new target. But have put the old one back on the ground, I had it tied to the swing set. But after that errant arrow I am shooting low into the dirt if I have too!


I did some scouting Saturday, found a couple of bedding areas and a tree between them (gonna borrow a friend's tree-stand) hopefully I can see a deer or two and get a shot off. Opening day is September 15!!!! 


I also found some new land to hunt today, just have to get permission to get on it. Hopefully the company that is holding the land will say yes! I scoped it out and found what looked like a herd's worth of prints in the mud.Very promising. There's even a deer crossing sign posted on the road so the deer have to cross there! LOL!
