My son at the range
« on: April 14, 2009, 12:01:00 AM »
For all those wanting to know what kind of bow to get your kids, here's a few pics of my son with his MadDog Pup Recurve - 20lbs @ 21" Ebony Riser w/ black glass limbs...

Ready... Aim...
 

Fire!! (I just caught the arrow leaving the frame)
 

Right on target
 

Best shot of the day
 

And some pics of his bow....
But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob;(from thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel:) -Genesis 49:24

Okay, some parting shots from our home range

Over the lake shot
 

My apologies to the admins, I'm pretty new to this posting thing, I'm 95% sure the pics are within range   :pray:

Awesome pics of the boy and bow. BTW where is that Range?? I grew up in Redlands and spent a lot of time in Riverside but never knew of a archery range. Like to shoot a round when I come back to visit.
A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight;nothing he cares about more than his own personal safety;is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free,unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

Well done...nothing better than quality time with your kids. I wish you many years of enjoyment watching the flight of the arrow together.

Hey Canyon it's actually located in Corona up in the hills by Lake Matthews.  You can find them at riversidearchers.com
