Trying to shoot a moving dog would probably be much harder. I can hear it right now "RUN FIDO RUN, GOTCHA".
I brought this up to rec officials and they said they did all the research and all is safe. I told them I worked at a summer camp and a few times a camper accidently let go of an arrow while bow was pointing up. Once an arrow landed in soccer field.

This is not safe and would never be pwrmitted in many other locations. I stay on the side far away from the archery side. If a young camper camn have an accident so can a first time senior. This is just an accident waiting to happen....
