Wednesday night the RA boys met out at the new Church for an archery exhibition presented by Keith Mack.
He is showing the boys a long bow here but he used a compound bow for the demonstrations.
We learned some archery terms during the presentation. If you'll notice, one of the shots missed the mark a little high. He did that on purpose. The term used for missing the mark is "sin".
Look close at this picture and you'll notice that he just put an arrow through the middle of a ping pong ball.
Josh helped with this demonstration. They put a balloon between two bags of sand. He shot it with a 30-30 and the bullet didn't pop the balloon. They then added 2 more sand bags to the frount and shot an arrow at the balloon. The arrow went through 3 bags and popped the balloon.
Last he shot an apple off Nathans head! Just kidding. He replaced Nathan with a foam head before he shot.
Good thing he did too. The arrow is going right through the eye of the dummy. Of course he did that on purpose to make a point.
Nathan was glad he got replaced. There was a lot of good shooting and some good spiritual application to what he had done. Hopefully the kids learned a lot.
