Sawyer shooting in barebow...
The day did have a few hiccups though, Maddie’s bow broke 2 days before the competition and she had to use a bow that she had never shot with. So she didn’t shoot real well and ended up not placing. Sawyer pinched his shooting finger in his bow the day before while stringing it and split the finger wide open. It made for a bit of frustration on his part dealing with a hurt finger.
The kids did very well though, even Emma…

Tori ended up placing 2nd and receiving a silver medal in her age bracket, only loosing 1st place by 2 points!
