I must say, Jenna has come a very long way. Started out tweaking her draw length, then focusing on the spot she wants to hit and not the pin, then squeezing off the shot. Spent many shots with her holding ont he target, and me squeezing the trigger, to prove that you dont need to hold rock solid to hit the mark.

Her new bow isnt fully tuned yet, waiting on the strings to finish creaping, before dialing it in.

All in all, I'm EXTRMELY proud of her. Its been frustrating for her, and she has hung in there like a champ. And people wonder why I shoot 2 or 3 arrows, then set my bow down and let her shoot - she'll whoop up on me if I didnt.

She has come a very long way in 4 months. I'm proud of you, Jenna!

I can tell Josh that it makes you feel pretty damn good that your part of helping her out! I know I've always felt good when I've been able to help people out.

Pretty cool, I still havent had one, knock on wood. Busted plenty of nocks and even splintered a few old shafts but never stuck one inside the other. With my new arrows being around 15+ rigged up, Id rather not have one at this point.

Way to go! Pray thats the last of them haha. The first ones nice, but the 2nd 3rd 4th aren't. I just shoot different spots on the target now. Sent you a myspace friends request!

Their fun the first couple of times and then you realize that each one cost you roughly 20$. Thats when you start shooting at 5 spot targets.

Good Job, keep it up!

Good job Jenna. I've busted plenty of knocks in the years I've shot but never had one stick like that.

Very cool. Congrats. And keep shooting. If your shooting like that at 20 yards. You should be ready for hunting season when it rolls around.
