Title: Beaten by a 12 year old
Post by: YORNOC on December 12, 2015, 04:36:00 PM
Damn it. Just shot in the back yard, at a tiny stuffed sheep dog toy.  My Big Jim Buffalo against my youngest Tyler with his St. Joe River long bow.
He is twelve.
I started strong, and was crushing.
We just finished, and he won. He really won. We were both inches away on each shot, literally inches where my wife had to judge. The little bast%$@ beat me legitimate. I'm beyond thrilled and totally pissed at the same time!
Tomorrow we battle again!

Be careful for what you wish for and thankful at the same time! I was there once... and still trying to catch up. Blessings.

Dad calls a legitimate win by his illigitimate son? Oh man that's funny!

Dave you cant teach them everything you know starting at a young age and expect to stay ahead in the race! Nice shooting young man, nothing better than whippin' on the old man!

I have coached (no longer coaching) a Scholastic Clays youth skeet team. These kids have been national champions twice and had a bronze medal at the nationals last year.

Tell me all about being whipped by a young kid!

good thing you didn't make a bet like the loser rakes the leaves or cleans up the dog crap,,, you know the stuff you bet when you think the kid will lose.

I have two who come out and whip up on the old man all the time it demoralizing. But wait old age and deception out do youth and enthusiasm every time.
But we do have a good time and its great that all four of my sons have stayed with traditional so I'll take the beating with smug silence.
