Christmas come early for a new archer...

[HellsCanyon]

We had Christmas early this year with family only able to be here on the weekend. All my 8 year old niece could talk about was getting a bow. Picked up a 10-20 lb little Martin compound and with a short safety lesson and instruction she was on target and hooked...

Even asked if the steaks we had for dinner was deer or elk and asked if I could take her hunting so "she could kill a deer and eat it for dinner". Christmas is so much more fun with kids around thats for sure!

Merry Christmas

She's the first of five nieces n nephews so I got a lot of work ahead of me.... can't wait for it

On a slightly different note, she got into the archery thing because of the recent movie 'Brave'. With a little education about where meat comes from she wants to hunt ASAP, but its got to be archery.... totally cool by me!

Just wait for santa to show up in the big brown truck...

flatlander, I've got a BB gun all ready for my nephew's 6th birthday coming up in June. He's got a good base for safety but now its time for him to start using it... and they are living in a place with all the birds a little kid could ask for, pretty excited to see how he starts huntin on his own!

Very cool!!! Congrats Mike I have two nieces myself that are starting to show more interest in archery. Even had the oldest out this year in the treestand with my brother. We bought a special two person ladder just so that we could start getting them out!! They love our sleeping bags in the stand
