Archery Dodgeball

Went and played Archery Dodge ball for the first time this week, Definitely an interesting adventure. It is played with arrows that have rubber stoppers on the point. You spend the hour shooting at the other members of your group. It can be painful when you get hit but for the most part it is not. Most of my effort was spent just getting the bow ready to shoot and hoping it went farther than 2 feet. It was very fun but I discovered that I am not an archery star. My boys were very good. But the biggest discovery is the pain at using muscles that have laid dormant through the years. My arms ached for days from stretching that darn bow. Would i do it again? Yes, it was filled with family fun and laughter. And for one short hour it felt like the days before we heard of life being quarantined.
