Title: (video) Josh and his new homemade Longbow
Post by: Rancid Crabtree on May 25, 2008, 05:07:56 PM
After 7 years and at least 10 thousand pictures, the old Cannon A20 2 Mpixel camera died. I bought a new digital camera on Friday that will also shoot video so I used Josh as my Guinea Pig. I told him to shot 3 arrows into the target. I had him stand about 4 yards away because I was burning brush in our backyard fire pit and that was where we had to stand to stay out of the smoke.

I told him to shoot the 3 arrows and not to talk or look in the camera. His first shot was a dead center hit on the bullseye. The second shot cracked the nock of the first arrow and made it glance out. You can tell by the way he shakes his head that he wants to look at the camera and say something.

Here is my first ever video staring Josh and his homemade custom Longbow.
