My daughter competed in her first 3D shoot this past weekend and wow did she do good. She even out shoot the old man (wasn’t hard I had a really bad day) and ended up taking second place in the Womens Longbow class. It was a really tough course with lots of targets over 25 yards even for the women, but she handled it like an old pro.
Here she is showing some of her 2nd place form.
She was very upset when she broke one of the special arrow I had built her, but I have more in the works.
The broken arrow was all but forgotten when they presented her with this buckle at the end of the shoot… 😉
My wife, son and his girlfriend also joined us at the shoot and had a blast even if we had to wade through water most of the day. My wife finished 3rd in Women’s Longbow, my son pulled down a 6th in Men’s Longbow and I took 2nd in the Primitive Class. My son’s girlfriend had not shot a bow before that morning so we had to give her archery 101 before heading out. It took a while for her to hit a target, but she did and on one of the most toughest shots the women had on the course. I was able to catch her reaction right after her arrow hit.
All in all it was one of the best “Family Days” we have had in a very long time. I can see them joining me on more in the future. In fact my daughter will be joining me for a local shoot this weekend and I know she will upset a lot of women in the longbow class at the local club…… 😆
