Justin and I are going to the Lake Geneva shoot with a few people that Joe is hooking us up with.  We are excited to meet them as well!
( and thank you again Joe!)  I shot Justin's bow at the 3d deer target i bought him at Gander Mountain after the shoot with Joe and Wayne the last two nights! Larry has pictures of those i sent him.... not to shabby for the first time ever shooting a bow an arrow and traditional at that! (got in the kill zone a few times!) My next door neighbors daughter who is about 8 or 9 has been watching this the last few nights and now is intersted in the traditional bow and she is now practicing to pull back the bow!  I will be getting mine here i believe in November!

Whip, and all the rest, thanks for taking Justin to the shoot!  He's one "Special Boy", not to mention he's now my "adopted Grandson"!!!!!
Wish I lived closer to be able to shoot with him and watch his progress.
Kelly and Justin, ya'll take care.  Justin, I do miss getting to visit with you!

Justin was wondering how adopted grandpa johnny was doing. We were not able to go to the Lake Geneva shoot had a family emergency with Rick's mom but we can always go to the next one!

Sorry we weren't able to pull it off Kelly and Justin. Rafael(Greatbrownknockemdown) had brought his two nephews so it would have been quite the gang. Here are a few pics from the shoot at BigFoot Archers in Lake Geneva.

The old ones enjoyed it too Izzy. By the way if you look real close on the 2nd to the last pic you can see the red fletch of Rafael's arrow just ready to drop perfectly into the kill zone. Also the kids were really proud that all four of us had  great shots on the last picture.
