Title: A little quality father daughter time
Post by: BigBucksnTrucks on December 03, 2012, 08:55:00 AM
Was able to get my daughter away from her iphone long enough to do some shooting.  She has lots of potential.  I'm hoping to get her to practice enough to shoot with me at TBOF in January.
We are still working on her form, she's shooting a self bow that's about 25#'s, she's still having a hard time pulling it, but she gets better every day.

I recently purchased the below long bow for a great price from the classifieds here.   It's a Fredericks Baron by John Fritz, 64" 53# at@28. This thing is remarkably quiet!   Very beutiful bow....Bamboo core with bocote back and belly. Cocobolo riser and tips under clear glass.

Frederick's are excellent bows.  Wish I hadn't let go of the one I had.

Yes, it is a nice gem of a bow, I'm very happy to have found it.  It's not one I'll be letting go of.

lol,yeah, when it's cold down here, it's only cold for a couple days then it's back up to shorts weather again.  Never stays cold for more than a week......and I'm using that term (cold) very loosely!   :biglaugh:
