I bought a bow this weekend. The kind you shoot arrows with, not the kind you wear in your hair. I remember shooting a bow and arrow at girls camp when I was 13 and thinking it was cool, and also thinking I was good at it. I also remember thinking that the chick who taught us to shoot them wore too much camo for one person, especially a woman person.
My NY'er is to blame. He shoots arrows, and he makes it look sexy (of course I think anything he does is sexy). He shoots arrows, shoots guns and has all these accessories for that kind of stuff. He also wears camo, but he's a boy, and he doesn't over d0 it.
In the last 3 months I have become the proud owner of my very own sexy hand gun and cool bow with a big black case with deer on it and lots of arrows (which are camo printed). I can't speak the lingo, I call the ends the pointy things and the other ends the clippy things, and I can't speak gun speak yet. But I have to admit that I like this stuff.
Sunday the NY'er and I went to the mountains in his green jeep with 2 guns, 2 bows, and 1 slingshoot and 3 cases of Wal Mart soda to shoot stuff at. I had a blast, and was so excited when I could finally pull the stringy thing back on the bow and actually shoot the arrow. (it's way harder than it looks ladies) I was also totally excited when I put 7 of 8 shots from my gun in the paper plate I was aiming at. That's some good shootin.
I doubt you'll see me sporting any camo pants any time soon, but I do admit that I enjoy these things. I have no desire to kill anything other than Wal Mart soda cans or paper plates, and I believe it will stay this way. But hell, yee haw and howdy ho, I'm having a good time.

Chad would probably love it if i would go shoot a bow and guns with him. I am not a big fan though, wasn't at girls camp. I never really liked it.
I was surprised by how much I liked shooting stuffs. I even bought my own handgun. I feel so bad ass. :)
Arms are for hugging. ;)
