This is my friend Terry Barnett's grandson shooting a horn belly-sinew backed selfbow.

Good job Terry!!
Tell the lad that his form looks perfect.
God bless,Mudd
now thats way cool Bro mudd :clapper:
awesome to see the young ones enjoying what I enjoy as a 42 year old child. My daughter has no interest at 13, too busy with the cheerleading. My 15 year old son choose the wheelie bow over trad, but at least he is loving hunting and has killed a few deer with modern weapons. His is determined to get a deer with his bow this season. I will hunt for him at the beginning of the season in hopes of getting him a shot first. I will be by his side as I was with my oldest son with his first bow kill. Hopefully, after a few years with the wheels he will see the fun and enjoyment of traditional archery.
That little guy has some great form!
Very cool! Love to see these little ones shooting. :clapper:
Glad to see Terry got him started early. Is it just me or is that boy taller than his Granpa! :bigsmyl:
Great pic Mudd! I know just how fun it is to share archery with the yung'uns. I think that boy needs a green hat ;)
Good on ya buddy!
Bob
Great Pic Roy, Thanks for sharing it!
Thats the way to go! I'm a triplet and my dad got my brothers and I each a bow to start on at 4. Now only two of the three are still shooting but my brother that still shoots is one of the best shooters I know. He even picked up a lefthanded bow (natural righty) and shot it almost as well!
:thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Shoot straight, Shinken
:archer2:
Awesome Mudd,
That's a neato bow for a lad to get his start on.
Awesome Mudd,
:thumbsup:
nineworlds9 that has to be one of the most precious pictures I have ever seen.
Thank you so very much for sharing it with us.
God bless,Mudd
Thanks Mudd, I actually took it down right after posting it because I didn't want to hijack your thread. I didnt read closely enough- it wasn't a 'post em if ya got em thread' but something you were specifically sharing. That horn bow is so cool!
Here's my pic again anyway :)

He is now seven and shoots a st. Joe river
Great photos, thanks for sharing.
I want to say now to "all"...Please feel free to share on any of the threads I start.
I never consider someone sharing as "Highjacking".
I don't need the light shining on me as most of what I do shouldn't be about me anyway.
I think I "make stuff all about me" way too often (IMHO) and for that I apologize.
God bless,Mudd
No worries brother
