Title: Sons First Real Bow! Apple of my eye!
Post by: Wannabe1 on February 01, 2011, 03:35:00 PM
Robert, got his first real bow today and is well on his way to carrying on our sport. He always tells me, "Good shoot Papa!" Well, I say, "Good shoot back to ya little buddy!"

I am enjoying the same thing now with my Grandsons. Where did you get that bow and what is the poundage? Post that info. up because some of us may like to pick one of those up also. Nothing better than seeing the younguns take to Traditional Archery.

Thanks everyone. He really did enjoy himself today. For those wanting to know, the bow is a Black Rhino M-48 Light. 48", 15# @ 22". He'll grow into it some before we need to upgrade.

Well my Nephew is 4.  I have had him shooting this little bow i got a the local shop.  Its made by cartel, open sight with cams so he can pull it.  It shoots these little arrows that can really get some distance.  Doesnt shoot too straight though. I'm gonna look into that bow.

Good job TW getting the boy in on the action!   When my 4 kids are flinging arrows, I always think of the arrow barrage on Braveheart...

Kenny, I know what you mean. When that boy is shooting, it's good to be a fair distance behind him.   :jumper:

TW,
Happy Daddy!  You are a lucky man...

Your son is a lucky boy.  I can remember those days with my son Andy.  Happy times together.  He is 30 years old and still reminds me of those early years we shot together.

I gotta say, I'm right there with ya.  I got my son a Maddog Pup Recurve and he there's nothing he'd rather do than get out and loose some arrows.  So for once I can honestly say... I know how you feel.

Hello TW, Great to see you handing down the tradition!!!! Tell your little buddy to keep up the good work. I bet you won't have to ask him twice to practice with you....I had a couple of misses with the Kodiak Hunter,will have to wait till next year to draw blood....Good Luck to both of you..Bobby
