Funny thing about those women and most of you probably wont admit it but its proven fact, after they get a little practice you'll be asking her for advice.

that's funny you said that we put a X inchpost it note on our target and shoot from 17yrds.(thats all the room I have in our basement) and she just started to shoot a week ago, and she Gert's up set if all 3 of her arrows aren't in the paper. I wish I was that good just after 1 week.

Its the same thing when you start to take 'em fishin. At first they're asking all these questions and you're doing everything but reeling in fish for her. Then all of a sudden you're like: "hey....um....can I have that spot?" and then later its "...god d*mn*t you caught all of them over here, where am I supposed to fish!!! I'm not bringing you with when I go out with the guys this weekend!!!"

I would suggest hitting a few quality pro shops and have them set up a few bowsfrom assortedmanufacturers. Fit is paramount in finding a bow that the shooter will be comfortable with and shoot well. Experienced archers change and upgrade over time as their abilities improve she will need to start with a bow that is fitted properly at the correct draw length and weight matched to the correct arrows and accessories.This time of year is a great time to try new equipment.The season is over and new equipment is arriving with superdeals anddiscounts onlast years equipment that has to go.A quality shop can helpher choose the bow that is perfect for her and she can shoot it before spending money on a bow thatmaysit in the corner because its just not right for her.
