Preparing for early season hunt the past few years has had me honing my archery skills and my son sighting in his 243. Usually, I hunt the mornings, we hunt together throughout the day and he joins me (as a spectator) in the evening. This year he said that he would like to bow hunt. He shoots in the school program, he shoots some 3d and he usually shoots around 30#. However, he also started rock climbing. His strength has increased as a result and was pulling 46# today. So excited that I will accompany my 14 year old on his first bow hunt this year!
