Title: The birth of a Traditional archer
Post by: Mudd on June 30, 2013, 09:10:00 PM
You folks have seen photos of one of my friends who is learning to shoot tradition bows.(Rodney Davis)

Today Rodney brought his son Aidan along so I found the lightest wt bow I could just to see if it was something he might enjoy.

The answer was a resounding yes!!!!!!!

Who had more fun Roy or Aidan? That bow has nice lines, no wonder it's a lion killer.

I have yet to find a kid that doesn't take to archery like a fish to water.

Every single one just has a ball.  The tough part is finding enough inexpensive youth bows to give away.

Great pics! Do all the other kids in the neighborhood knock on your door and ask, "Can Mr. Mudd come out and play?"  Not enough "big kids" spend time with the smaller guys, so it is really good to see a lot of your pictures.

Rodney Davis "He did great & is still talking about it. Once we find him a smaller bow I think he will be even more successful."

Dad is very proud and rightfully so!

God bless,Mudd
