Sometimes, teaching is as simple as that.  Let them learn.  Once someone tries something. .  they may actually like it !  It's the trying that is tough.
Thanks

Great story.  I'm sure his day was a little better because of you also.  I hope to be able to pay it forward like that someday.

Moleman, Great story. If I can influence just one person to take up the pleasure of a REAL bow, my life will be complete.
