Title: Amost screwed up
Post by: highelk on February 23, 2013, 05:33:00 PM
Well hello Gang. I have been really struggling with a shoulder and elbow problem for the past few years. Just finally took a year off from shooting. I evn went and bought a cap and ball rifle to hunt with this coming season. Then the other day my 16 Year old daughter asked about shooting a longbow...well that got me started. couldn't shut up for about an hour. I finally just told her that I would take her to Rocky Mtn Specialty Gear (RMSGear) and she could give it a try and see if she liked it. Well one thing led to another and I shot a couple of lower weight bows myself.
aaaaaand
Now I'm back....getting her a recurve next week and dropping a little draw weight on a Longbow for me and going go Archery. There is truly nothing like watching a loosed arrow fly to the target. I am so glad I went. it felt so good that I cannot even put it into words.
now I've finally got my shooting partner that I have been waiting for!!!! BONUS!!

I've been battling a bum shoulder/arm for 6 months now. I know how you feel!

There's nothing like having your kids shoot with you!

Congrat's! And welcome back to archery. Sounds like a great hunting partner in the making, also. Life is good.
