Shootin Targets w/ my Daughter
« on: August 14, 2009, 07:00:00 PM »
Today was much too hot and muggy to mow; grass needs to green-up for better growth anyway  :D  

So I took my daughter to the local 3-D course for some quality time and hunting tune-up. Got a few pics to share:
Hamming it up for the camera guy:
 
Getting serious:
 
Getting her mark:
 
Ooops, a miss:

Some one else once posted on a thread of mine that,"the best gift a father can give his child is his time."  That saying stuck with me and seems appropriate for this thread.  Great pics and love the dress my little girls are 5 and I'll have one them at the 3-D shoot this Sunday.  Great thread   :thumbsup:   Joe

Ben,
  Great pictures!  The first thing my 8 year old daughter said, when she saw them was, "She's got a nice looking bow!".  Nothing better than spending a day in the woods with your daughter flinging arrows!  Best wishes for many more days just like it!

Lefty.... A friend picked that up at ATAR from one of the vendors for $20, unfinished. I just spray-painted it pink, put on some finish and Wa-lah! She thinks it's the greatest!  :bigsmyl:
