I have one. Don't hunt with it. What I lack is the knowledge on what type of arrows (or is it arrahs in the trad world?) I would need. After this I lack the confidence to kill an animal with them. Once I have some arrows, practice will tell me when I am ready to hunt with it. My excuse? Ignorance in the equipment and procrastination are my excuses.

Last year was my first time carrying a traditional bow in the woods for deer. I made a bad shot on a doe at Hoyt's place and didn't find her. The recurve I carried was my sons and it will mean the world to me to make a kill with it. So far this year I haven't had a chance to shoot, but I might get out with it before the year is over.

"arrahs" if you are communicating with situational dialect or are a genuine hillbilly. :smile: you're on your own with the procrastination, but otherwise, fire away. shouldn't be too hard too get you onto some proper arrows. I think that is what an equipment specific forum like this is for?

now, now Diablo, Flutemans queer facetiae aren't hurting anything. rotflmao

thanks too those of you who have managed too stay on topic. shame on the rest of us. :pickle:

This is my first post on this forum sent this way by Jamie...

I only hunt with recurves and longbows. This year I have hunted with a bamboo backed Osage longbow made by Jamie and killed a skwirl first time out with it. About 14 or so years ago I shot and hunted compounds. I have killed one deer with a crossbow. Crossbow=total boredom (for me). Compound=too much technology (for me). Trad bow=killed with my own skills. This is the way animals were meant to be hunted.

Nothing wrong with sounding off on who shoots what if they are proud of it. I am.

I have 3 compounds, a crossbow for wife and kids, and a stick and string for myself and a couple for my boys. I am very narrow minded about what you use to hunt with. Killed one with shotgun once. Killed one with 44mag once. Used my smokepole couple times. I am here to judge how you hunt heydeerman.rotflmao Welcome to the site.
