When I was a kid I shot olympic archery then moved on to shooting compound hunting bows.

I purchased my 7 year old daughter a recurve the other day and I was amazed at how well she shot and her form right from the start. Then I tried it and because it is so small I just instinctively shot it and was amazed that I could hit the target out to thirty yards. Not with much accuracy but hits. One the less.

Now I want one. I’m thinking I would like a aluminum riser style bow but I’m wondering what draw weight I should start with as I would also like to hunt with it once I get good enough?

My daughter woke up with sore muscle this morning. I said that’s because you shot your bow for six straight hours yesterday and maybe she should take a day off.
Her words were “No Dad, it’s too much fun”
