Hey guys, I want to introduce you all to the newest fan of TradGang, and my new hunting buddy, my daughter Sophia! :archer:

She's been wanting to hunt with daddy for quite some time but has always been afraid of the loud sound my rifles make... Well, when the bow came along and she showed interest again, I got her first camo outfit and her first bow!
She's spotted something!!!

The draw (and remembering daddy's form tips!!)

...and the arrow's loose! Look at that follow through!!!

I'm so proud and excited I can't stand it!! :clapper:
:pray: Thank you Lord!
Now I've got to trim her arrows a bit and keep her enthusiasm up!
:thumbsup:

The look in her eyes in picture 3 is pretty intense! Nice release also.

Looks like you've got a great new hunting buddy there. :thumbsup: Tell her not to worry about being afraid of the gun noise. I'm a 38 year old guy who's been shooting guns for 24 years and the noise still scares me. :biglaugh: I wish you both the best of luck in the field. :cool:
Nice, now thats what it's all about!!!!!!! :archer:
Brother,
We are indeed blessed...to be in this wonderful country....and; that we continue the hunting tradition by passing that legacy to our children.
I am a VERY proud of you Sophia!

Got to love that! Reminds me of my little girl a few years ago.....Shes in college now. Yea, I'm gettin old
Started hunting with my son at the age of four. He is now 24 still get excited every time we hunt! You will have many great years of memories, enjoy! :thumbsup:
Great pictures and great fun. Enjoy her; JT's right, they grow up fast.
BTW, JT, you don't worry about gettin' old - you're still just a pup. My "baby" turns 33 this summer and life is still great.
Thanks again guys,
