Shooting into different rooms is more than 3 feet away. As is wilderness rooms.

Which as I just stated is 7 miles, you are okay with the idea that a bow can shoot 7 miles but not okay with the fact that you can't dodge those arrows which sometimes are shot within close range?

Actually the facts seem to say they move faster than 90 mph. From what I could find, arrows leave the bow at somewhere between 150 to 325 feet per second depending on quality of bow and arrows. When you convert that to miles per hour, you've got a range of 102 to 221 mph. Of course an arrow loses speed with distance, but I think this still indicates that an arrow is faster than you thought. Real bows aren't like the one's you might have experienced in a high-school archery class.

...In order to get an arrow any distance you have to point up, unless you are higher than your target. Pointing up makes it arc. You can definitely see it coming if you are looking unless you are point blank., which is SK is first row, and you cant really shoot first row cause if you get targeted, no more lshooting.


In this instance the person in second row is 3 feet behind the person in the first row, Jethro.

I just laughed so hard...The advertisement on the side of the screen was for bows. :lol:

Or something, I had clicked a different link already and glanced at the side of the screen and saw a picture of 2 bows with prices under them. o.o

Ah, there, got it again...rofl, Target is trying to sell bows I guess.

No idea what that is. But I keep getting it now, it's a link with the Target symbol up top and three bows with prices under them.

I haven't seen that one at all, but Google ads are somewhat regional. Target may have an ad campaign only for people in your region. Bow hunting is not big in my area of California.
