Getting them started early

[DXH]

My little nephew just turned 6 and with the approval of his dad... A longbow found its way into the bag of gifts... Not anything fancy but at 6 I didn't figure he didn't need anything too nice either.

His eyes lit up like Christmas had come. He spent the afternoon shooting... He was a little disappointed he missed the target so much but i reminded him even Robin Hood had to start somewhere... He grinned and by the afternoon was able to at least put his arrows on the target.

Oh yeah! Kids and bows! Love the mix of the two! Good on you, uncle

Great! It looks like you have found a shooting buddy.

Awesome! Another trad shooter in the making

[awry]

Good Job. Not sure there is every a too early to start.

That's roughly the same age my boys started shooting. If my experience is any indication, I'd say you are going to be doing quite a bit of shooting with that young man from here on.

Looks like he can use that awesome playhouse to practice shooting from a tree stand!!!
