      When I was a Navy sailor in the Phillipines, I knowingly ate dog (sorry, dog-lovers). It’s wan’t very good, and never had it again. Also had monkey. But I did eat that over and again as it makes an amazing BBQ.

        I shot a crow 20 or 25 years ago and figured I’d give it a going over in the frypan. But, when it came to dinnertime, I just couldn’t do it. Threw it outside for the wild critters have. Felt bad about killing something that I didn’t eat, ya know?

          G Fred Asbell’s book on stalking and still-hunting is invaluable. FUll of great information. Give it a read. And good luck.

              It’s fly fishing for me. I absolutely love getting out into the wilds of Maine and fly fishing small streams, rivers, and remote ponds for wild brook trout. And as I’m an organic vegetable farmer, growing things is a great interest of mine also.

                I haven’t hunted from a treestand since the late 1980’s, and I don’t miss it a bit. I did have some nice sits while in trees, but I feel more “in the game” on the ground.

                  I shoot year round. I’ve a 15 yard range set up in the hay loft of my horse barn and shoot atleat four days a week. It’s lighted too, so I can get out there any time of day or night.

                    A couple days ago I Googled “Bowhunting Moose” because once again, this year, I’m in the moose lottery here in Maine, and am hoping to finally get a permit. I watched a video of a guy shoot a moose at 52 yards in Ontario, I think. Man, that is such a stupid shot to take on such a rugged animal. You guys are right, many shooters take stupid risks (at the animal’s expense) when they could just learn to hunt and get up closer to their target. The ethics that you and I learned from our fathers and grandfathers seems to be lost on many people today. Really saddens me.

                      Excellent. Wish we had bunnies around here–looks like fun hunting.

                        Is there any question why we’re all traditional? That gizmo is terrible.

                          How far do you figure the deer was from you when you took the shot?

                            Heterodyning does, indeed, quiet your string. I use the heterodyning formula on both my longbow and recurve, and both are much quieter than before.

                              I really like trail cam photos, and yours are great. Thanks for sharing.

                                  You should be fine using the all in one. A lot of folks who make arrows use polly from the hardware.
