At least that is what I am calling my grandson now.
My grandson Brad, and I went to a local 3D  this morning, and shot antelope, buffalo, alligators, baboons, and all the other northern N.Y. native species, LOL. It was a fun morning, and then came the novelty part.
There were several challenging shots to be made, and one in particular caught my grandson's eye.

Now he is not new to trad. archery, but he only shoots about twice a year, and this is the first shoot I got him to go to since he was 10 years old. He is 20 now.

Back to the noverlty shot. There was a manniquin with a piece of chalk in its mouth in place of a cigarette. Now this was no chip shot, as it was out there at 27 yards. It took three shots, but on the third shot he popped that piece of chalk directly in half.

There just happened to be a reporter from a local paper there that took down the information, and said that he would get it in print in the next week.

Wow! What a day. I think we have got a new member to add to our trad. ranks.

That's great!

Cool

Ken my friend, with your sound advises, your grandson will be a Champion!

I can't wait to shoot with you again

F-Manny

Always nice to hear stories like this, hope he starts shooting more often. You have to try and get him down to the Muzzy shoot, coming up the middle of August.

Way to go Ken!! Must get it from Pop Pop!!

 Must of been something I taught him.....lol        I'm gald that it will make the paper....good press is always hard to come by!

Hi Ken.  Thanks for sharing the cool story.  It sounds like good shooting runs in the family!!

Good memories for you and him. Nothing like shooting bows with someone you love.
God Bless, Steve

Ken, wish I was there to see a proud Grandpa.

Hope to shoot with you and Brad soon. Perhaps this weekend. so far looks good for me.

I have seen the mannequin novelty shot, Its hard! Tell Brad the celebrity congrats for me.

I dream about doing that with my grandson. Congrats!

That's pretty cool!

Ha! Love it!  

Thanks for all the comments guys.  I forgot just how much fun it is to see a young man get excited over a good shot. I am pretty sure we will be enjoying more time on the course soon.

It must be somethin' in the genes!
