A New Jersey man found an innovative way to pop the question to his girlfriend at a local shooting range using a target asking: “Will You Mary Me?”
Since the couple both share a love of the outdoors and hunting, the prospective groom took his girlfriend to shoot at a range owned by his friends.
A handmade target featured a “Yes” with a large bullseye next to a smaller with the word “No” underneath it.
Upon seeing the target flip over, the girlfriend turned to find the man down on one knee with an engagement ring. She started to cry as he placed the ring on her finger.
Then she turned and fired three times into the target marked “Yes”.
