    Hello,

    I am a tournament bass fisherman and love the outdoors. I have to admit. My 8 year old son got me into bows. He watched a lot of hunting shows since he was young. I never discouraged it but we never had active hunters in the family. My father in law made my son a recurve bow. He is already a pretty good shot from 10 yards out. Just need the space so he can practice further out. I just bought my first compound bow off a friend. It is fall now but my son and I have a goal to go on a spring turkey hunt. That gives us plenty of time to practice and buy some additional gear. If it all works out, we will go with a friend.

    Here's looking to the future!

    Sean
