Amost screwed up
« on: February 23, 2013, 05:33:00 PM »
Well hello Gang. I have been really struggling with a shoulder and elbow problem for the past few years. Just finally took a year off from shooting. I evn went and bought a cap and ball rifle to hunt with this coming season. Then the other day my 16 Year old daughter asked about shooting a longbow...well that got me started. couldn't shut up for about an hour. I finally just told her that I would take her to Rocky Mtn Specialty Gear (RMSGear) and she could give it a try and see if she liked it. Well one thing led to another and I shot a couple of lower weight bows myself.
 aaaaaand
Now I'm back....getting her a recurve next week and dropping a little draw weight on a Longbow for me and going go Archery. There is truly nothing like watching a loosed arrow fly to the target. I am so glad I went. it felt so good that I cannot even put it into words.
now I've finally got my shooting partner that I have been waiting for!!!! BONUS!!
"Go afield with a good attitude, with respect for the wildlife you hunt and for the forest and fields in which you walk. Immerse yourself in the outdoor experience. It will cleanse your soul and make you a better person."~Fred Bear~

I've been battling a bum shoulder/arm for 6 months now. I know how you feel!

There's nothing like having your kids shoot with you!

Congrat's! And welcome back to archery. Sounds like a great hunting partner in the making, also. Life is good.
Take care,

Congrats on both counts!!  Enjoy relearning with your daughter!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Welcome back. And you're right. Your new partner is a bonus. All the best
Old doesn't start until you hit three figures...and then it's negotiable
