sodfather Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 She came home today and said after the tournament she wants to go up a grade in her bow. I picked up this Hoyt Ignite from a buddy of mine last year in hope she would shoot it when strong enough. Still need Jeff from Niagara Outdoors to go through it but she handled it good. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 It was around that age when I found that old drawshave up in my Dad's shop and built my first hickory longbow, and went up in the hayloft of the barn and started shooting pigeons. Archery became a huge thing in my life at that time, and it thrills me to see kids getting into it. Yeah, the equipment is a lot different and way more sophisticated, but the challenge, discipline, and fulfillment are the same. And it is a hobby that can provide a lifetime of enjoyment. And look at that shooting form .......perfect! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But be careful if your kids love it the addiction will begin and the bank account gets smaller LOL..She's looking through the Lancaster archery catolog making a wish list for me . She was proud of this a broken knock hahaha. Edited June 14, 2017 by sodfather 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She really is hooked shoots probably 4 nights a week. She does get discouraged sometimes but I like that a little she just wants to get better and better.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like she is already bitten by the bug , the never ending quest to shoot a perfect round EVERY time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 regardless of how well she does, you both being passionate about the same interest is so awesome words doesn't do it justice. nothing wrong with chasing perfection and improvement, as long as you don't burn yourself out doing so and still have fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
