Well I've had a blast the last two days. Not sure the numbers for today but it was pretty much non-stop from 9AM till 6:30. The ole knees are paying for it but was worth all the aches to see the smile on those kids faces. It was also really nice to finally meet and shoot with some good folks face-to-face. Count on my help in the future!

Day two down. One more to go. I really have to say that we could not have been able to do this without bountyhunter and DrenalinJunkie. They stayed with the kids non stop. Would also like to thank Mrs DrenalinJunkie and their girls for helping out. Brandon and Dena were helping down at the 3-D Pop ups which was non stop action as well. I could not tell you how many kids went through today. I have to apoligize that I forgot my camera, so there are no pics. If you think it did not happen because there are no pics, I dare you to come out next year and help. Wiki, I remember your youngster. I remember his big smile after shooting. I don't think you need to wait for Christmas for the bow, go ahead and get it now, and he can shoot with you while you are getting ready for October. A BIG THANKS TO THOSE THAT CAME OUT AND HELPED. The kids really appreciated you. Bob

Well the day is gone, and the show is finally over . We had a little over 1000 kids shoot a bow this weekend. Some of them for the first time ever, some that could shoot better than me , some big, some small. If we had bows to sell, I am sure there would be some happy parents, and some not so happy parents. Hopefully we will have many new bowhunters or at least archers out there. The Pop Up went real well and was a blast as usual. It was not for the weak at heart. The targets were from 20 out to 35 yards at less than ten seconds per animal. I would like to give a BIG THANKS to Eddie Tanuz and his son Steven that stayed with the kids all day today. We would not have been able to keep the youth range open if they were not there. Along with Eddie and Steven, there was Brandon and Jackie and Dena and me. I did bring the camera today, and nearly forgot to get pics. I did not get any of the pop up, but did get some of at the youth range. Sorry to everyone else that help the first two days that I did not have my camera. Here are a few pics from today. Bob

Glad y'all had another good day. You are right, about selling bows. If there had been an archery shop next to us with a bunch of kids bows they would have had to been giving us a commission on sales. Sure hope a lot of those kids will be getting bows and become archers and/or bowhunters.

Thanks to those that helped out. The short time I spent in the booth on Friday, gave me some lasting memories for sure. Some that were not smiling on the way in, had some big ole grins on the way out. A few of those little rascals can shoot. I had a good time working with all of the kids and the volunteers. See yall in Ft Worth.

BIG THANKS to all who helped out at the event...
Forrest, Donna and their daughter & her friend,
Mark and Kelby,
Derrick,
Russell,
Eddie & Steven,
Brandon and Jackie, and
Bobby
You all helped make the Youth Archery Booth at the TTHA show a success!! It is a lot of work and some sore muscles, but it is all worth it to see the smiles on the kids faces.
Bobby did a great job in signing up members and I appreciate Donna sitting and helping with the merchandise!
We also had to provide help at the Pop-up 3-D shoot, so we were a little stretched at times.
Lots of parents were asking about purchasing bows for their little ones, so that is a great sign for the future of archery! Hopefully, they will follow through with it.

Oh, by the way thanks Bobby and Dena for getting me hooked on that dang 3D shooting. I've gone and ordered all the stuff to build a set of arrows just to shoot 3D, so I can save my pretty ones. The one's I used Saturday were build for my compound and spined too stiff. It was really fun, so I'm not complaining too hard, though my wife might when she sees how much money I spent....
