Default son grouping arrows

My son is 10 now so I am starting to let him start pushing his poundage up and I just installed a pin sight on his bow.(before he used a small cheap slider that just had a ring)I also installed a peep because his form is starting to be consistant enough to use it.


Here is a group he shot in the garage right after I upped the poundage to 32#'s(should easily reach 40# by next deer season)

He is so much into basketball(baseball too) that when he walked up to the group,he said hey,that is a triangle and 2,referring to one of the defenses his team plays,which is undefeated at this point in the season.There are 3 arrows in the lower wad of arrows.

Hopefully,I have been able to jump his learning curve.I had so many bad habits and form breaks that I had to relearn whenI got older that being able to bring him along at his pace and teaching him proper form and mechanics looks to be paying off.

Believe it or not,he just doesn't shoot that much,but today he wanted to.We tried it outside but it was just a little too cold for him so we moved it inside.

He has motivation now,I told him he has to be able to comfortably shoot 35#(he can pull it now)before next season to hunt with his bow.I also told him if he could reach 40,I would get him a new bow.[&:]

A new Bow when he gets to 40 #, you went and done it now!
Tell him, great shooting, and he is lucky to have such a good coach.
