You fire a gun.

You shoot a bow

I thought someone had pissed you (or Maya) off and immediately thought of this:

I predict that there will be many suggestions and statements about the law made here, and some of them will be spectacularly wrong. - jhe888

I love that video, especially the 'twitchy eyes' she gets when she sees the spectators. . .

So there are no hecklers at an archery competition?

Or if you really want to get technical, you loose an arrow.

I always thought you shoot an arrow with a bow, but loose a bolt from a crossbow. Now I'm really confused.

If you shoot an arrow into the air, and it falls to earth, you know not where, I'm pretty sure you loosed it.

Not that I’m into archery or similar activities, but it’s always been a laugh to me when I hear in a movie, READY, AIM, FIRE to archers, when it should be NOCK, DRAW, LOOSE.

Kinda like the ubiquitous “Hammer Cock” whenever a Glock is drawn. Razz

You should see the discipline of those people who shoot firearms competitively.

They not only have to control their natural inclination to shoot the spectators, they have to control the gun's natural urge to launch itself on a killing spree.

The people who are at the top of this game shoot Service Rifle, a type of competition using the same weapons of mass destruction as militaries use.

Sure do, bro. Me, I'm proud to say I'm one of 'em.

Thort it was obvious, me.

You sir, are a hard core reloader. Most of us use bullets of lead and copper.
