P.S. I WAS HOPING TO PRACTICE ON SOMETHING UNDERWATER! I USUALLY SHOOT A CAN AT 30YRDS FOR PRACTICE BUT I KNOW ITS NOT THE SAME AS SHOOTING SOMETHING UNDERWATER

I heard someone talking once about submerging a 2 liter soda bottle filled with colored water. You can tie the bottle to a weight tethered with a length of rope at the depth that you want to shoot. I plan to try that myself pretty soon.

i made a carp out of phoam from a hot tub cover once, that stuff is really good and pretty strong too. i guess that would be kinda hard to sink, but my friends and i wanted to tie it to and anchor and throw it down there and shoot. never did, there were always carp and/or cans to be shot

Got a tip for you Sean. Since water bends light rays, just move your nock up allittle so your arrow shoots lower. Moving targets are alot of fun.
