She’s done a few on bears already. She didn’t miss a beat. 110 yards or so total distance. Went thru a bunch of standing water for the first 50 yards. Deer heart and red wine for dinner and some home made lemoncello to celebrate. biracial baby names

Reflex/deflex, straight D- shape, hybrid, ASL? String material? Arrow make, spine, broad head make /weight? Tab or glove? Split or three under? I just like details. Picture of your bow? Thanks in advance. "Behavior accepted is behavior repeated." "Strive to be underestimated."
