This weekend Kyle, Nener, Emily and I spent the weekend 3D target shooting out in the great outdoors above Orofino, You shoot at targets of animals made of foam. There are deer, elk, wolves, big horn sheep. etc.... It sounds pretty easy but it is pretty hard. You have to figure out how far away they are and then try to hit a spot that varies from the size of a baseball to the size about the size of a watermelon. and then each of those has different areas in them for different points. The bear above was about 30 yards away, if I remember right. You would have to ask your uncle Kyle for sure. I managed to hit this one in the throat and left shoulder. Kyle hit it in the heart. But I am getting a little better. Anyway this is what I am doing besides working. Kyle is here this week and I am enjoying his company a lot. I miss you all a lot. Love DAD

My dad a bow hunter? It actually looks pretty fun. Next time you go you should bring your hunting knife and then pretend like your gutting the animal and see what people do. That would be funny. Love ya dad. Meesh

Cool dad! Looks like fun! Don't you love it when you discover something new that you love? Have you hit your arm yet with the bow string? It freaking hurts!

Cool Beans! Does your one arm get way stronger than the other from pulling back the bow string? I've always wondered that. We hope you will come visit us sometime soon! Love you! :)
