with kids it's always a fad,if the other kids are shooten one they want to shoot one to.Remember she is a woman so by a cheap one she will probably change her mind when she gets it.

I agree with what others have stated, just because we like traditional archery it does not make it better than shooting a compound. It is better to share time with her regardless of equipment used.

I think she is really interested in shooting and especially doing so with Daddy. I don't think I would worry about the type of bow she uses. She wants to do this with Daddy. I have 4 kids ages 11,18,20,22 and if they want to do whatever with Daddy I am a happy man. Trust me as they age these times don't happen as often.

Keep her happy and in archery my friend.

Maybe she isn't aware of "modern" recurves with metal risers and such.
Might be what she'd really want but she doesn't know it exists.....

Why does it have to be 1 or the other? I was brought up on fita recurves. I now shoot trad and compound to European level at comps. However at club shoots and regional opens I have been known to turn up with a recurve.

You may find out she enjoys both, recurve for stumps and compound for precision.

At the end of the day, isn't it time with your daughter the important bit..
