Title: Granddaughter Amanda & Recurve
Post by: George D. Stout on September 22, 2008, 09:19:00 PM
My daughter and granddaughter accompanied us to Forksville, Pa., Bowhunter Festival this year.  I taught her to shoot a little when she was four or five years old.  She hasn't shown interest for several years but wanted to go along this year.  She's sixteen now and took to the recurve rather quickly.   Here arrows are terribly mismatched but I gathered a bunch for here to shoot none-the-less.  She had a blast and is going back next year.  She is shooting at thirty and thiry five yards with a twenty-nine pound Ben Pearson Varsity recurve.

That would be a good bet Roy 8^).  She's also learning to play the fiddle and is in the High School Band.  Also 5th in her Junior class of over 200 kids.   I'm not biased though 8^).
