Based on phone orders and emails; about 40% of our bows go to girls.

Yes, it's good to see it too, I read some much about archers coming back after using a compound bow for so long.  They've rediscovered the enjoyment of seeing an arrow reach it's mark,  Not having to know the exact distance so you'd know which pin to use, not being limited to carbon arrows, and the simplicity of a stickbow.  Thanks Vermonster, and all others, for doing your best at involving kids and equiping them so they can grow our sport, and they too can get the enjoyment of arrow flight.  I look forward to this year and the ones to follow.

No pics yet guys, but my daughter of 1 1/2 years will be getting her lifetime hunting license this Christmas. Since she will be getting all the toys she needs from "mamaw and mimi", me and the better half decided to drop $200 in the license.

Geroge D. -- If that gal can center any of those tiny targets at what appears to be 50 yards+ ... send her to the Olympics! Trick photography? In any event, more power. D

Babe's got back
 
Now that's funny  :D  

Anyway, I agree.  Don't know who this young lady is but i took a pic at a 3-D.  She was shooting with her family and it really impressed me...

 

And here's my Daughter  :)  ...Van

These are my children.  I made my little girl a red oak board bow and she loved shooting it.  The only problem is my nephews wanted to shoot it and pulled back way to far and cracked it.  :(    Now I am working on a new one for her.
My son wants to shoot with me evey chance he gets!  :thumbsup:

I feel sorry for you in a few years. You got a beautiful little girl and she likes to shoot a bow on top of that, you and her little brother will have your hands full keeping all the boys away   :D
