Grandsons' second archery experience

[reddogge]

Their first exposure to shooting was this March at out house.  This was yesterday and today.

After a day at the pool they wanted to shoot before dinner last night.  I had a bag of balloons so we put them up and started to pop them.  Great fun for kids.  Their form was better than March and they were stronger.  Almost 5 y.o. Donald was hitting them.  I then made them pick a balloon and shoot at it rather than "flock shoot".  They shot after dinner until dark and we got at it again today after breakfast.

The two older ones, Nicholas 9 and Ben 7 moved up to the 30# Browning I shot at ETAR and I moved up to my '65 Kodiak 41#.  Ben was a litte over bowed but since his brother moved up he wanted to also.  Donald although the youngest and slightly overbowed at 20#@24" is the most driven and would shoot all day long if you let him.

Here are the pics.

Good dynamic release.
