Yes

No I don’t think it has, because I didn’t get distracted by any new interests. Bowhunting season was dedicated to Bowhunting! :D:D Sorry bud

in reply to: short bows #48893

Since every thing in the Modern History book of Bowhunting has been successfully hunted with 66″ to 72″ longbows, I feel that my 62″ “modern” Black Widow longbow is plenty short.
Having said that, one of my good friends has 2 Shrews, and I couldn’t help ordering a 56″ classic hunter. So, when I get it, in 14 years, er, I mean 14 months :-), I’ll give you my unbiased assessment 🙂

Steve,
Although I’m largely a solo hunter as well, I thoroughly enjoyed the time spent together. I hope we can do it again next year. Oh, and also thank you for givin’ up your honeyhole 🙂
Take care

I’ll tell you another secret:
Steve stalks whitetails walking … backwards. Supposedly they think he’s walking AWAY and not towards 😀

in reply to: recurve/mechanical release #41616

Not traditional, but possible, effective, and useful if you no longer can use your fingers, but still would like to shoot trad bows. About a year after selling my compound ( I just had a one year love affair with it, HA), I discovered I still had a leftover release. Just being curious, I took a few shots with my trad bows, at that time they were a 68″ yew lams longbow and a Hatfield recurve, using that release. After settling on different anchor points than finger release, I remember that it worked very well. Of course that release is long gone:lol:

in reply to: Tail cams?? #41398

Just the word “infra-red” makes me nervous when used in the same sentence with Nature and Hunting. Why bring this tech into Nature? Why is it so imperative to know what “you have” in one’s area? Personally, i don’t want to know what’s inside the box when i open a present. And since i will never travel to hunt inches, spreads or record books, i don’t need to see what this outfitter “has” versus his neighbor. Which makes me wonder if cameras are just not another tool to make money or have a name in a book

Yeah, it was cold and damp, but still great. See you this weekend, Steve
