Archery is Finished

Nikki, Rachel, and Hailee finished the archery league they were members of and received many prizes for basically being there. I think they have enjoyed the experience and learned a lot about archery equipment and marksmanship.
Nikki actually shot a balloon containing a piece of paper that would get her another prize. As she walked up to shoot the arrow, the person in charge told her to use the second sight on her bow. She didn’t want to and worried that the arrow would hit the floor due to her experience of aiming and shooting this winter. She how ever did what she was advised and as she knew the arrow flew low, but the arrow did not hit the floor, instead it popped the balloon just above the floor. I was proud of all three girls because they were timid – not sure of themselves among experts who understood the equipment they didn’t. They did very well and with practice will be better.
