"Elf in Training"

So, here are two pictures from my first attempt at shooting my bow. (Cabela's pictures to come soon, I promise!) Casey says I'm an elf in training.

I have found two potential names for my bow (both Elvish, which Casey giggled at me, but it deserves an elvish name methinks): Faelwen, which means justice, and Siladhiel which means the shining one. I'm also kind of partial to Caladwen, which means Light. Bow of Light. It just sounds cool. Hee hee. ANYWHO... on with the pictures.

Notice the wonderful red spot on my arm just past my guard. That's what happens when you get distracted and the bow string smacks your arm. It is now purple and three days later it still hurts! YEOWCH!
