Well I have been promising my ten year old daughter a bow for a while and today I made good on that promise. I picked up a Diamond Nuclear Ice compound bow. Here is a link to the bow.
http://www.diamondarchery.com/bow_nuclearice.php She was totally excited and we went out to the range this evening and in no time she was shooting a tight group at twenty yards. I also have to add a big thank you to the folks, specifically Chaz, at the Federal Way Wholesale Sports. I had planned on buying the bow there but they did not have any so I went elsewhere. Well the elsewhere that I bought the bow at didn't really set the bow up. By the time I got home I realized my daughter couldn't even see the pins with the peep that was attached. I was less than thrilled with the service but I won't go into that in this post.
So off to Wholesale Sports I went and in no time they took the time to properly fit my daughter, added a D loop, and changed the peep to one that would actually work on the bow. I bought a half dozen more arrows there and they cut them down real quick and had her shooting great in no time. I went in clearly expecting to pay labor costs to set the bow up and they did not charge me a dime, not even a charge for the D loop and the peep. I was so impressed that I tipped the tech twenty bucks for his time. My daughter also thought it was really cool that all the techs were drooling over her bow since it was the first time they had seen it and all thought it was pretty neat. Now both my daughters have bows and soon I will be buying one for the wife.
