My hardcore husband

John has always wanted to get a bow. Well we built one up for him recently. This is evidence of my husbands desire to practice with his bow. He is no quitter. He went to Ben avery with Dustin to practice with his bow. This was just after he got the Bow. His bad arm- the one he broke in his accident- was getting tired but he still wanted to shoot and this is the proof that he wouldn't quit. The bruise started out as a huge blood blister and was very raised. Now it is black and blue and looks a bit like a horsehoe, I don't think the picture does it justice. This was taken as it was healing. The funny part was that after it happened he put on Dustin's Jacket and continued to shoot his bow. After a couple more times of hitting his arm, he decided to call it quits for the day.

I'm really surprised that the skin didn't break when the bow string slid passed his arm for each shot. It's a pretty big bruise to get without having a big scrape, too. But it's worth the pain to learn something you're determined to learn. His pain threshold is greater than mine.
