Happy New Year!

Post by Thomas Duvernay » Fri Dec 31, 2010 4:30 pm

Since 1999, I have a tradition where every New Year I shoot off an arrow a couple seconds before midnight, so that it goes up in one year and lands in the next. Here is the one for this year, which was a whistling arrow:

Happy New Year :D

That is a very nice tradition! I would adopt it as well, but I only have about 4 hours left and it would be impossible to make a whistling arrow until midnight (unless I wanted to sleep on the couch for the first night of 2011)!

Happy New Year!

Daniel,

Just shoot a regular arrow--it doesn't have to whistle.


Happy New Year!

What a lovely tradition!
I want to adopt something similar, but unless I time it to fractions of a second, there just isn't space in my back yard (and don't want to risk smashing next door's car or greenhouse or inhabitants by shooting it vertically)

Have a great 2011 everyone :-)
