Impressive use of a bow and arrow.

Think about it..... That’s the oldest trick in the Marksman's bag. If you get close without hitting the candle, it will blow out the candle. It’s not a perfect shot.

That said, I’m not taking away from her prowess, but you’re allowing yourself to be taken in a little bit.

Shyte, if I could get an arrow close enough to blow out a candle, I’m claiming a hit!

Not that hard. Once I got my first bow tuned up I used dime sized spots on the target and had to aim at different spots each time so as to save $ on arrow damage. 20 yards. the clear LOS in the building is only so long. Brain case shots on NA large game animals. Either you can or cannot hit your target.
