    I "borrowed" LC's infamous saying last year when I shot. Made me think about what other ways people say they just took a shot.
    So, just for the fun of it, what other ways can it be said? Here's some I thought of, yes some are a stretch:

    "string dropped"
    "spun the cams"
    "limbs unloaded"
    "arrow sent"
    "just sent one"
    "arrow flung"
    "lit a nock"
    "projectile sent"
    "d-loop dropped"
    "wet a broadhead "
    "arrow painted"
    "pphhhfffffttt" ( I really like this one lol)

    I’ve seen more than one use “shot fired”. I might have used that when I was gun hunting.

    "I love the sound of lung pop in the morning." I used this on opening morning last year.

    For the love of the maker, please never use "I did a thing" That has to be the :dan:'est saying a man can say.

    (only had the chance to text that 2x)
    does "something happened" fall into the same category?

    I forgot that one, always an exciting one to see.
    Not so great for elk, everyone would just think I got frustrated and was going to take a nap. :lol:
