Ava gets a Pup
« on: June 17, 2010, 10:24:00 AM »
I have a 6 year old who is going to be a hunter. She has eagle eyes and spots game better than me already and seems to want to be everywhere I am when I am outdoors. She has been slipping her brothers bow out when he is pre-occupied with a book or game indoors. I promised her a new bow if she stayed out of trouble at school...I thought she'd get in trouble at least once. But she was good to her word and I was to mine. After seeing all the great bows that Vermonster puts in kids hands (way to go pal!) I decided to get Ava one. Mike at Maddog Archery was kind enough to not only put it all together in a great Pup bow, he called to let me know it was on it's way. He's a class act! It is an awesome little bow! So, per man law here's the pics of a bow, future Tradganger/hunter.

From experience... enjoy them now because in a few short days you will be buying her a car and watching the groups change.

You need a little more back story on this one. Ava was going to get one of the Maddogs from me but after some thinking and seeing the price Maddog charges, Mike bought one for her instead and paid for one for a future giveaway done by me. He and Maddog are both class acts.

I don't know who is luckier, you, or Ava. For us, what joy there is, seeing a new hunter taking flight!

That's awesome. She is a cutie. My kids love to shoot too and it's quite rewarding when they come along and have fun shooting.
