Title: Starting the new year right!!** Update pg. 3**
Post by: ron w on December 31, 2012, 11:06:00 AM
I just spent Christmas with my Grandson [6 months old] and it was a wonderful time. They left to go back to Georgia on Saturday and today what pops up on the Classifieds, a Northern Mist youth longbow....48" 18# @ 20".....I had to pull the trigger and get it for my little buddy Ryan. Might as well start him off right......    :archer:

No finer gift... I gave a bow to my granddaughter on her birthday.  And by that, I mean her actual birthday, as in the day she was born!

I can't wait till he is old enough to shoot it. It will also be fun to get him set up with arrows and a quiver......By then I hope to have moved down to Georgia so I can spend more quality time with him and his mom and dad......I've got to get his dad shooting now.....lol!

Ron, you have a bow buying addiction   :rolleyes:    :smileystooges:    :bigsmyl:    

Ryan has a year or 3 to grow into it but I am sure it will be great fun when he starts flinging arrows.

Happy New year to you and Denise.

I was informed that Dad was a bit jealous with Ryan getting a bow....So I went to the rack and found a Apex Predator Cumberland string follow for dad to play with, he's a history buff and likes the straight old style longbow......gotta keep everybody happy!!

Hey Ron, Good for you. I pray you and your Grandson share all the delight that can be brought by the stick and string.May God bless.

Ron,

Everytime I get another bow I tell the wife it's for the grandson. She never argues that way. He is three now and I have him pretty much covered until he's retirement age.

An update, I got my Grandson a longbow, I find out that some friends of his parents got him a lifetime Georgia hunting and fishing license. That's pretty neat.....
