Her first time shooting
« on: January 15, 2009, 09:00:00 PM »

Next she'll be wanting her own bow! I bought my wife a HH Wesley for Christmas and had BGRAM make her a pink/white string to match the white glass. Badger Arrows is making her some pretty arrows to go with it. Boy am I a sucker!     :bigsmyl:    But, it's what made her happy. She'll be shooting it at the Western States Traditional Rendezvous.

Good deal, BA1, and great shooting. Now get a Full Draw pic that is just a little more clear for me, and we'll get her in my Traditional Bows Drawn pages to help inspire other would-be lady archers.
