Default My Grandson

Started him off at three; with a little kid's compound, he wouldn't put it down.

Eight years later; he's still crazy about archery.http://www.huntingnet.com/forum/memb...50848354-n.jpg

Cool Rev. I have a grandson (10) and granddaughter (8) that each have their own youth bows. He has a Whisper and she has an Alpine. They both love to go shooting with their pap. And they are getting pretty proficient too. And last year their mom got into shooting too and bow hunts with me. I had to buy a couple extra treestands so I could put in double sets until she gets the experience of when to draw on a deer. She is a darn good shot too out to 30 yds because I made sure she didn't develop any bad habits right from the onset.

My son started with a selfbow when he was 2. He's 19 now, hasn't been interested in much other than girls and trucks the last few years, but he shot up until a year or so ago. I think he will get back into it...he has mentioned getting a new bow and hunting with it. We'll see...

Funny; I went through the same thing with my boys. They are all married up with children and back shooting and hunting again. Must be something in the water.
