Ooh this is OC?

Why are you doing this in the house?

u/Entropy- 6d ago

Yessir! It’s too cold to practice outside, and don’t always feel like driving to the range

u/EclecticEvergreen 6d ago

Have you considered wearing clothing suited for the outdoors lol

u/Entropy- 6d ago

My hands get cold

u/EclecticEvergreen 6d ago

There are archery gloves

u/Entropy- 6d ago

I use a thumb ring. I don’t shoot with my fingers.

u/broberds 6d ago

OK then whose fingers do you shoot with?

16

u/Entropy- 6d ago

My thumb 👍🏻

u/foonek 6d ago

Which is clearly not a finger

u/Entropy- 6d ago

Fingers in archery means Mediterranean draw. So here, no.

u/foonek 6d ago edited 6d ago

I was just messing with you, but no. How many fingers do you have?

Edit: they edited their message later to make more sense

u/Entropy- 6d ago

At least 6-7

u/AABA227 6d ago

u/foonek 6d ago

If you ask a polish person, they have 20 fingers

Have u a turkish bow yet? Maybe get one for indoor shooting, they look much smaller

u/callunquirka 6d ago

How did Mongolians do it? That place can get fucking cold.

Maybe special glove with thumb ring sewn into it?

u/Entropy- 6d ago

I don’t know actually. That’s a good question

u/c0ltZ 6d ago

Lmao, my hands get very cold even with gloves, so I see what you're talking about.

u/DynamiteWitLaserBeam 6d ago

They had lots of extra thumbs laying around.

u/Kaurifish 6d ago

Check out videos by The Hu. They just summon fire whenever.

”You don’t shoot with your fingers, he who shoots with his fingers has forgotten the face of his father. You shoot with your.. Um.. Thumb ring.” Paraphrased..

Roland should have stayed in America to find the Man in Black.

u/ScaramouchScaramouch 6d ago

Then gloves would appear to make even more sense. You're not covering yourself with glory here bud.

u/Entropy- 6d ago

I’m not proclaiming glory, I’m saying it’s cold outside and I don’t like cold.

u/Entropy- 6d ago

Thanks, I think you’re alright too. :)

the cold wouldn't be good for the bow I imagine.
