    She has decided that she likes her traditional Bear One Shot Bow, as she tried her cousin Sophia's Diamond Nuclear Ice and doesn't like it as much.

    Well Nickelle had been shooting the day before as a right handed shooter, and her arrows were going left. Of course she was using her cousins Diamond Nuclear Ice compound and closing one eye aiming.

    I asked her to look at me, and close one eye... yep she was closing her right eye. So I put her back on her Bear First Shot placing her arrows on the left side of the bow, and taught her how to hold and shoot left handed.

    As the balloons popped the excitement grows.



    After this video was shot, little Sophia was wanting to shoot for points [​IMG]


    Nickelle will need a better traditional bow in the future... I'll let her decide if she wants a recurve or a longbow.

    I miss shooting with my son who now shoots more zombies on the internet than shoots his bow with me.

    The balloons are a great idea. I'll be trying that with my boys this weekend. Should be exciting for them.
