recurve for a 4 year old girl?
« on: August 16, 2011, 10:13:00 PM »
I decided that I want to get my daughter Jenna a nicer bow for her 4th birthday in 3 weeks. Does anybody have any recommendations? Where can I get one of those little pink wooden recurves I see here from time to time?

Would a kid this age be able to shoot 15# or something closer to 10#?

15# For as far back as she'd pull a 15# bow she would be around 10# I'm guessing.

Not sure what Mike's recurves are weighed at inch wise but my LB pup is 26@25 and it's a stout 26 too.

I bought my four year old daughter a pink one from 3Rivers, she loves it. It is a long bow, I think it is called the squirt.

I don't know what colors they come in but Black Rihno has a large selection of youth bows starting at 9 lbs.

The Squirt from 3 Rivers is the one I couldn't think of. She says she wants a pink bow. Thanks all!

Look for the pilgrim squirt from Elk Ridge Archery. My daughter had one from age two.

42WLA, you should be proud. I hope my daughter keeps asking to shoot and one day hunt with me.

Yep pink pilgrim squirt, my 5 year old has had it for a year and loves it, not from shooting results but the cool looks!

Another one for Maddog Pup. Mike is great to work with, as all our sponsers seem to be, and makes a great bow. See my avatar

Macbow from here emailed me and already had one made that looks like a Squirt. He's going to stain it pink and sell it to me for the cost of materials.   :D  Thanks!
