New Hunting Buddy
« on: March 19, 2014, 05:20:00 PM »
Got to spend the day with my grandson and future best huntin buddy last Saturday. Course Papa had to take him to Cabelas. Here's a pic of him in a ground blind. Gotta get him ready for his first turkey season in a couple years, he  just turned 2 last October. Already thinking about building him a little longbow soon. Hard to beat a grandpa day!

Spent a few day with my grandson last week while in Florida, he is 21 months old......great fun with him on the beach. One of the few good things about getting old....lol!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

Like they say... If I had known how much fun grandkids would be I would have had them first!

While not cherishing growing older, I do love to be with the four that call me Pappy.

Nothing better than family...

That is a great way to spend your day Kent.  I got to watch my grandson last night. I will start his bow as soon as I know if he is a righty or lefty . Your grandson looks like he is having fun.

No grand kids for me, thank GOD!  Daughter is almost 14:)  No better way to spend a day than with kids who love the outdoors.  Heck, in some states hes probably legal to pull the trigger:(

Thanks guys. You're right Ryan, family and being close to your family really is a blessing. I always heard how great it was to have a grandchild and it's even more fun than I imagined!

That is great to see. I know how proud you are that he is interested in being with you.

My grandson just turned 2 in February. I sure hope he grows to embrace archery and will enjoy doing it with Poppa. After all, when he grows into them, He already has 7 bows ready.
