After killing his first turkey with "another" weapon last week, my son was pumped to get a little bowfishing in here locally. He made some good shots but no dice on many...

*Concentration
Finally he made a good shot with his longbow made by a friend. We are in training for his first hog hunt next spring. He's getting closer!

*Good one
He's 11 and is beginning this journey. We have sat blinds and killed turkeys and deer together. I am looking forward to the day when he stands over his first whitetail with his dad.

Thanks everyone! We had a great time. I see great kids like Cade hunting and great dads like Guru getting the kids in the game and it encourages me! I won't kid you guys when he dirt rolled that bird and made this shot on the gar I got a little misty :p
Thanks again!
-
Awesome! Nothing is as much fun as summer time bowfishing. now that he is "hooked" looks like it might be time for a left handed reel on that bow instead of the upside down right hander...lol
I had to shoot that way once last year when my left handed retriver broke. no one stocked a lefty so i had to order one and while waiting for it to get here I used my daughters righty upside down the same way.
-
Only another lefty would notice that :) You guys are thick as thieves! I plan on getting him a recurve with a little wider limb and a lefty rig very soon.Thanks for noticing. My southpaw appreciates it!
-
Congrats on a great day with your son!
-
Great job, that's excellent practice and fun to boot! Looking forward to hunting with you guys next spring. Plenty of pigs around.
-
That's great stuff right there... get a big old lump in your throat seeing that kind of bonding....
Way to go Dad! :thumbsup:
