I started this little tyke (now 19 years old, about 6'4", etc.) when he was small enough that I had to carry him on my back.  Glad he stuck with it. I'm also glad he no longer rides on my back.   :D

Started both my boys at 2 years old.  One took to it one didn't, keep it fun and hope for the best.  Still hoping my older boy will see the light.

I built my nephew a PVC bow this year. He is 3 and wanted to "hunt" with his dad.  Cant wait till I have one to shoot with.

Great pics and stories dads

Just started my son this year. He is 2. I took him out to the ground blind with me during hunting season and let him blow the grunt, use the turkey call and predator call. Came home and made him a little bow. He was shooting dowels but got pretty dangerous with that quick. Let him use the cardboard rods off of hangars now. I am hoping to make a better bow for him soon. Here is a pic.

2 years old.  The president of the bow club made a special group for them.  Under 3 Longbow.
Needless to say, they won 1st and 2nd every tournament.

God Bless,
Nathan
