Default RE: The youngster - PICS

Great job! Errrrrr.....you did teach him how to shoot didn't you?
Well I'd like to think I did. - It's what I tell myself at least.

Thanks guys.

And I agree about the wheels, if he keeps it up, there will be no need for them. I'm trying to keep him away for a while yet. He will outgrow this bow by next year, and I'll get him a fairly decent youth longbow.

When he started shooting that group in the picture, I could actually feel the shot with him. ---You know how it feels when you make a good shot, how you don't even have to look at the target to know where the arrow went. He put four of them in there, and on the fifth shot I said, you make this one and we take a picture and call it a day. He actually hit the nock on another arrow in the target and deflected the arrow upward (It's the top arrow sticking in the target). BTW He was shooting between 8-10 yards.

This is the third year that he is shooting, he is 9 now. What really impresses me is his relaxed stance. He is starting to really get into the grove now.

Thanks for the kind words mshane. If you ever need help, give me a hollar!
