Well, my archery fence is getting a doggone good testing tonight. We have 65 mph winds with gusts up to 80 mph here. So far the score is GPR's Archery Fence 299 Wind ZERO! :) It looks like my design and Overbuilding have paid off! :)
I just went out and checked the fence out. Everyting is just the way that I built it. :) Even the 20' X 30" tarp that I covered the shooting end with is still intact! :) I bet if it would have been light enough to shoot inside the range, That I would have been able to drill X's! :)

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, that Good Old Yankee Ingenuity is still alive and well! ;) :) :D Us old Northern/Southern boys still have it! Even in old age! ;) :) :D

Would you believe that right now (according to the local radio station) it is 71 degrees outside? :shock: It's incredible! :shock:
The winds are finally starting to die down a little bit thank goodness! The gusts are down in the 40 to 50 mph range and the sustained winds are in the 30 mph range.
It has been a LONG, Windy Day! :(
