RE: OT: Bow Hunting
I'm not a fan of bow hunting as so many bow hunters are not skilled enough or dont know their limitations and wind up wounding it and itll run off and die a day later, also even when you have a good kill shot it still usually takes a bit for it to die.
And the number one reason, pussies use stands/blinds, hunters stalk.
I've target shot compound bows since I was 11 but won't bowhunt, I'll stick with my .308, 12G over under and .40 pistol.

RE: OT: Bow Hunting
I pretty much stopped bow hunting about ten years or so ago. I started with Whitetail II about twenty some years ago when I was about 16 and graduated to a PSE when I got into target shooting in the mid '90s. Sold the PSE in '04 due to lack of use and just gave the Whitetail II to my little cousin who was interested in taking up bow hunting about two years ago. Only bow hunted maybe six or seven times and only have killed two deer with a bow. I always have done most of my damage with my TC Hawken or my trusty Ruger 30-06.
Always wanted to kill a hog with a bow, but never did. Although I've killed many a hog with the Hawken and a Ruger Mini-30 though...

Haven't bow hunted in a few years as they clearcutted my hunting area and my huntin' partner moved to Houston. But my 3D/hunting bow is a Rytera Bullet X with cavalier rest and Toxonics micro adjust sight. I use a fletcher concho release, have for 25 years and 2213 aluminum arrows. Don't shoot it very much tho. For 4 months in the winter I shoot indoor leagues with a Martin Scepter lll nitrous-x shoot-thru (polished aluminum), golden key premier micro adjust rest, Sure loc 3 axis micro sight with 6 power scope, Posen stabilizers with v-bars, and 3L-18 ACC arrows. Its not weather I can hit the target at 30yds. but which dime size spot you want me to hit.
But from April to December the one that gets the most use in my Bob Lee Signature takedown recurve or Lone Wolf Kayopo recurve. Have not mastered the recurve yet, but is alot more fun than a compound. And yes, I shoot wood thru the recurves.
