It’s 97°F, that’s hot. It was hot when I practiced this morning, not yet 97, but close. It’s going to still be hot when I shot again after I finish this post. Typically, I write these posts at night. Today, I’m typing a little earlier to share what happened during the morning practice.
The target I’m shooting sits in a chair in a small dip. Without the chair the target can’t be seen once the distance reaches 43 yards. The ground isn’t level and there’s a hump that makes the target invisible when you start adding yardage if its not on the chair.
There still isn’t a lot of variance in the topography. To make shots have more of a slope I stand on trailers used to haul tractors.
While standing on one of these flat bed trailers I heard a buzzing sound. I looked down and there was a humming bird searching the nocks on my arrows for nectar. I’ve seen some unusual things outside but that was a first. This little bird was putting its beak into the each nock on the hunt for sweetness. Sadly, it was disappointed and flew off.
Back to the heat: Brenda just informed me it is 107 with the heat index. Yep, this afternoon is going to be toasty.
Nice shooting. Hot and humid here.
Hi Jimmy, hot and humid here as well. Another week and we’re back home. See y’all then.
