Lost a $5 bet

Post by Rich »

During shooting practice today I told my teenage daughter that if she could hit a $5 bill at 40 yards she could have it. Thought the bet was stacked in my favor since she doesn't shoot any type of weapons. Bolt used was a GT II tipped with a Muzzy 100 grain 4-blade, brass insert and 2" Blazers. Results are posted below, good thing I didn't bet a 20.
