We had a busy weekend with the kids' 4-H club like I mentioned before with digging for gems then silk screening and an archery class.

The girls have done some backyard archery but the class helped them understand some important points of the sport that they just didn't seem to grasp when their dad was explaining it to them.

Like the comfort of an arm guard.

How nice higher-end bows are and how to position yourself when shooting. The bows were way nicer than our Goodwill finds.

G. got that position thing during the following round with her friend.

And the girls had a chance to see some other kids who know how to shoot.

But not only did the kids enjoy shooting, they also loved tracking down the stray arrows in the woods. Most in the group were novices so there was a fair amount of time during those first few rounds spent in the woods between shooters.

And even the adults had a turn to shoot and it was a toss up who was having more fun.
