I really know its starting to get fun when...
« on: June 13, 2007, 11:21:00 PM »
Well I went out to zip about 50 or so arrows into the bail today and after about my first ten or so I hear something behind me. Its my daughter Hannah. She's got her little black rhino long bow in her hand and she looks at me and smiles and says,,Daddy I want to shoot my bow with you,, I tell you what,,My heart just melted right there. I got the balloons out and started to peg them on the bail. and I just sit just behind her in the nice summer sun in the grass watching my daughter pop ballons with her bow. I must say she is the safest, most thoughtfull archer I know and she can hit ballons at six feet with no problem now,,UNBELEIVABLE,, She just turned four last week and I just know this is the best life can get.  Thanks for letting me share and God bless ya'll,,  Jason Bobb

Jason, That is awesome.  I know the way Hannah shoots she will be outshooting you and I in no time.  Keep up the good work man.

Before you know it, she will be sitting in your (better) stand!

My kids are in college now and I miss being afield with them.

Looking forward to grandkids now, as a matter of fact, (God willing) them kids will never have a want for a new bow!

Great story and pictures!
