In the nearly 7 years I have been in A.A. I have never heard someone say one could not sponsor until they had a year. I liked your perspective on it though. Anyone who has time has something to share even if it is only a day. My thought though is I would prefer to have a sponsor who has worked the steps. I don't think that the Big Book even uses the word sponsor in the first 164 pages. All it talks about is one alcoholic helping another to stay sober, which any alcoholic can do.
