Archery has been in my life for as far back as I can remember
The memories afield and the Trophies I had attained where just the beginning .
Teaching my children to shoot and the time spent doing so has been the greatest gift of all
Best thing I ever did was build a 15 yd range in the basement
For those quick sessions after homework
Archery really does help me relate to my kids And brings us closer

Her head is a little out of line but that's why we take pictures so I can show them form (http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa302/jparanee/fa6e5454.jpg)
Yup they are the best memories, all my kids shoot and teaching them shooting and hunting is the biggest part of my life.Congrats on having kids that are following your footsteps. :campfire: :archer2:

Archery has given me a common bound for my son and I. Also my grandchildren. Taking my 5 yr. old granddaughter to a 3D shot last spring fired me up about trad. archery again. I have alot of gratitude for our elders who invented the bow and the ones that has kept this tradion going.
Way to go.... I'm hopping to start the same with my daughter this spring!!

Looks like you have very nice kids who will be tough contenders in their archery future. Looks like a HAPPY Family! My Motto is Happy Wife Happy Life!
You can be proud...the kids look like they are having fun. :archer:
Good job. I am envious. Try as I might, I couldn't get my daughter interested in archery.
Nice work Dad....the girls looks like they're being taught well. :thumbsup:
Thats what its all about.
Really cool :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :archer2:
They are the most precious things that god has put in our lives. Keep doing what you are doing and enjoy every minute with them. They grow up too fast.
What a blessing you have! They obviously enjoy themselves - great job!
Sounds to me like Dad has his priorities just right. Way to go Dad!
Very cool !
This post makes me happy!

well done :clapper:
You're a Blessed man for sure! Those girls have great form, they must have a good coach. :clapper:
Joe, I do not have to tell you that you sir are a blessed man!!
Thx so much everyone
With 3 daughters I just can't play with anymore dolls . I have Nightmares about them :)
My kids all do sports etc but I'm on the sideline there
This is our thing and it always will be
other kids come here to get started also and my kids enjoy the group shooting
We dont live directly in a neighborhood so we do alot together
I have lots of kids bows left or right handed. even still got my B Red Bear Bow :)
When I was a kid we got turned loose. We ran trap lines and shot at every critter we could. But had no real archery instruction and though it was a blast I carried a lot of form issues from child hood to adulthood like snap shooting over bowing myself etc.
We are having fun but trying to instill good solid form So they can really burn it into there sub conscious.
I am happy to say we are all getting better :)
That is just the road I aim to take with my Son. Hes two now! I say great parenting, and what a bond you/will have with 'em.
Love stuff like this :thumbsup:
OUTSTANDING job dad. It don't get any better for you and your kids. I love going out and shooting with my grandkids.
