I Could Not Be Happier Right Now!

[MM2004]

My daughter Caitlin this year, joined her school archery team, and has really done well, and is a natural thus far while really enjoying the sport.

Yesterday, her team and many others competed in the State Tournament, and Caitlin shot her best to date:

A 253 out of 300 possible!

Each Archer shoots 15 arrows at 10 meters. Then the same number of arrows at 15 meters.

She was nailing the target yesterday shooting:

Six 10's, Nine 9's, Nine 8's, Four 7's and Two 6's

Caitlin's Ranking:

Middle Division - Grade 7:
Rank Gender Division: 199
Rank Gender Grade: 98
Percentile: Top 44.79%

Her and myself were totally on a "high" yesterday and wanted to share this as a very proud Dad.

:)

Due to all of her teammates shooting skills, they took State and now advance to the Nationals in May!

Congrats - As an archer myself and one who will be soon teaching his own 8 year old daughter to shoot, I am curious:

Recurve or compound? I am not familiar with junior leagues. What age group?

I shoot (or I should say shot in the past) indoor 300 rounds and hope to get back into it once I have an excuse to spend time on the range again (i.e. spend time with my daughter).

My oldest was on the Bullit East team the first year they offered it and they went all the way to state. Didn't win..but was still really good for a first year. We've got a target at the house if you ever want to use it man. I think we still have her bow too.
