Daughter Smokes the Old Man
« on: November 15, 2012, 11:14:00 PM »
My teenage daughter has been shooting quite a bit lately, especially after all the archery in the movies.  

She tells me the other day that she'd like to try to shoot a turkey while we are up in Kansas over Thanksgiving, which I'm thrilled with.  All my kids like to shoot, but there hasn't been much interest in hunting yet.  

Anyway, I told her that she needed to be pretty proficient in order to hunt, so she starts buckling down on the practice.  I came out to watch her, and she decides to show off her rapidly improving skills.  She placed a .5 liter plastic bottle, end on, between the ears of a fox target and proceeds to tell me that whoever hits it first wins.  So we stroll out to about 20 yards, and before I could even get an arrow knocked she absolutely drilled it!  

I'll never hear the end of it now, and it will be even worse if she gets a turkey before I do!     :biglaugh:

An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

Ahhh, the treachery of youth !!! Got a teenage son who has been whoooping up on me for years. I can beat him every now and then here in the backyard, but not very often. Sure is fun though to get under his skin even if it is only for a short time.....  :goldtooth:

How's it get any better than that?
Well, it probably can as that sounds like just the start of things to come.
You're a lucky man.
