Archery

March 12th...

Jared is into anything that deals with shooting stuff. Nerf guns, water guns, Buck Hunter (video game)... you get the idea. He's a boy. It's what they do. I surprised Jared by signing him up for archery lessons this Spring and he was SO excited! Way better than those boring swimming lessons every year (his words). The other option was gymnastics (which he also loves) but Dad wasn't real fond of that idea. ;)

First night. 6 boys soaking in all of the instructions...

Who knew that there were 11 steps to shooting a bow?!

They started out with 'string bows' to get the positioning mastered...
And then they finally got to shoot the real thing at the end of the class.
He did pretty well for his first time. He hit the target 2 out of 3 times.

March 19th...
Second night. The hardest part is getting the arrow set-up on the bow.


Ready... Aim... Fire...
