My personal range is defined as such: I run a 100yard sprint (for buck fever heart rate), stop and shoot 1 arrow. I retrieve the arrow. I repeat the whole thing 2X. the 3 arrows have to hit the target perfect. I increase the distance every 3 arrows. if my last good group is at let’s say 40 yards, my hunting range is half that, at 20. This season it was 45 yards, so I made my range ballpark 22, given +2 -2 according to situation. Very “rainman” isn’t it? 😀

Have fun!!

Respect Alex! Reminds me of a Brian Sorrels tip of doing star jumps or push-ups before your training shots to simulate buck fever. It’s in his trad archery book for anyone interested.

Sounds like it’s going to be an awesome hunt Etter. Enjoy it, stay safe and report back to us – with pics if possible. It’s tales like this that keep me motivated to make a “dream hunt” in the future. May the trail rise to meet you.

Thanks Alex. Of course I’m looking forward to Elkheart’s release but I think that’s still some time off.

Paleo, there have been some outstanding finds here over the years. Probably the most famous being the Ardagh Chalice found in a field:

But this country has been occupied and agriculturalised so long that unless you’re digging deep there’s very little to be found on the surface 🙁

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I’m not ruling out instructional dvds but I’d like them to have an outdoors slant with plenty of panorama if you know what I mean. What about the traditional adventures series or stickbow close series? Or vision quest? Anyone seen these?
