Solved another problem today!!!!!!!!!!

[hamilton]

I hav been struggling with my new to me cross bow adventures.
I have tried different methods for siting in my scope and without it, tried getting my son inlaw to shoot it for me at targets. Finally yesterday, hwe and i went out and cut some tree limbs for my tree stand and cleared some lanes.
WE saw at first, three does in the field of soybeans(still green), then saw another set of two does, then as a rain howre started to approach on our way out , we saw four BUCKS!
All feeding together, heads down, a ten pointer, two 8's and a BIG sixer. All of them let us get within forty yards before the wind changed.
We wre both really pumped.
So, today, I met him after lunch, decided to find out why I cant get close with my cross bow at 20 yards on my target block.
I am soooooooooooooooooooooo STOOPID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have been wearing my bi-focal glasses(new to me this past year), and i had been off about 18-24 inches. My SIL took two shots, dead on, I started thinking "what am I doing Wrong"?
I swithc ed to my old pair of sigle lens glasses, and "WHAM!!!!!!!!"
Bulleyes, every time.
So, if you think you have a problem with something like did. Think about what glasses you are wearing.
Sure made my day. And even , probably my whole season better!

Awww, Ham, don't beat yourself up...that's what family and friends are for! Glad you finally figured it out. I'm positive you'll have success shortly.
