bmc Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 I'm curious to see how many of us will be taking a young bow hunter out this fall. My daughter is 11 and this will be her first fall bowhunting. She got a new Darton Ranger 3 for her birthday in June and is all dialed in out to 15 yards. There's been a spike buck on the trail cam where one of her ground blinds are at, so it should be exciting next Saturday!!!I don't know who's more excited!Good luck this fall to all you bowhunter's out there this fall!Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boatfixer Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Brian that must have been you at the hunter safety class today. My twins were there too and were impressed by your knowledge of bows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmc Posted September 12, 2009 Author Share Posted September 12, 2009 Yep that was me.I had to laugh when I told them kids I've been shooting bow since I was 3 years old, so I've been shooting for 32 years. A few jaws dropped, too funny, guess I'm getting old??? LOLNow that I think about it......i must have been one of my dad's 1st archery shop cutomers??? LOLThey had a good turn out, and quite a few girls in the class. Even an adult female in the class, not sure if she was w/ her son or actually taking the class though.Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boatfixer Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 She is actually a friend of ours. Yes she and her son are both taking the class together and I think its great! Thanks for sharing with the kids today. Both my boys really enjoyed it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderer Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Count me in as one who'll be getting a young miss out there starting next weekend. She just turned 16. This will be her first hunt where SHE is the shooter. My confidence is high that if we get a clear shot at 20 yds or less, I'll be posting a pic. BTW, bmc, 35 ain't that old yet!

harvey lee Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Good luck to all the fathers taking out the younger future archers. You will both have the time of your life even if you do not harvest a deer.Post some pics if you whack one doe or buck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deerhunter Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Just got back from taking my 7 year old son out hunting in Wisconsin it was bow opener Saturday and we had a blast didn't get anything but we did see a doe and he got pretty excited so that's all that matters. He wants to go this weekend too so I know he is hooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PerchJrkr Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Antenna is cooked. 250$ Look online and theres a chance that you might be able to re-initialize the whole system. Tried it on mine this spring but it was the antenna. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I'm taking my 7 year old out this weekend to sit with me in the 2-man stand. He's already shooting his bow with me in the back yard and learning a lot about safety and handling. Makes me proud.Now my 5 yr. old Daughter is asking to come up with me in the stand so she can participate. Life is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
