Title: My two favorite archers!!
Post by: Guru on August 02, 2007, 05:04:00 PM
First off..I'd like to thank Bob Palmer for sending a little lefty recurve for my son Cade to shoot. It's a little Pearson Bronco.....perfect size for my boy to get started shooting lefty after switching from rt handed.....First time shooting the Bronco....

Bet they become good shooters.  Your son is already holding that bow out there after the arrow is gone.  Congrats!  :thumbsup:

I think my daughter likes to shoot more than Cade, and he loves shooting!

I couldn't be more proud of these two little squirts....see what you started Dad.....

Well done mate, my hat is off to you. In todays world we can be caught up in the rush and before we know it we're taking a long dirt nap.

Keep at it and your welcome to shoot in my backyard anytime.

Not wanting to steal your thunder mate but here are my two...

Awesome pics bro. Looks like Cade has taken to left handed with no problem. Emmie sure has grown since the last pic i seen of her. Seems like just the other day you posted about her being born.

Oh BTW, The flash seems to have done something to your hair color!  :D
