Archery anyone?

DH setup an archery range in the backyard mostly for the kids, but got us each a new set of gear.  I haven't shot since girl scouts back in like 1975, and yet it was strangely like riding a bike.

my sight still needs to be dialed in, but here is what I managed to do yesterday

An archery range in the backyard sounds pretty bad ass.

Do you guys have compound bows or regular bows (don't know what those are called)? I don't know much about archery stuff, but I've shot a compound bow a few times. It's harder to pull back than it looks!

I can't help but picture We Need To Talk About Kevin whenever someone mentions a backyard archery range.

 I was coming in to say this! OMG. 

I did some archery in Girl Scouts too, but I was terrible at it.

dh and I have compond bows, the kids have recurve bows
if your compound was hard to pull back it was not the right bow for you.
