I personally got tired of the compound, as that is how I started out. I disliked the exact reason why so many like them–they are too precise. I think it detracted from my abilities to rely on woodsmanship. Plus it makes me feel connected to our ancestors somehow. I love that the longbow limits my hunting distances, is lighter, quieter, prettier, and that it was made out of something alive. The compound will never have any of these qualities.

Thats awesome Clay. You really captured some cool footage and the filming is very clear. I like the accompanying music, it really makes the mood of the video quite funny. I expect to see more from you. Keep it coming!!

Let’s keep the ‘hunt’ in hunting. dp

Hey Dave, how about this bit of interesting trivia…Michigan banned baiting of deer because of a positive CWD test in a fenced deer population. I know that those two topics are on your list of favorites! I would love to hear your thoughts on this interesting piece of Karma!

😯 What the?!! That is just plain bizarre!

Here, in Michigan, baiting was banned just a few years ago.

And now they are trying to allow it again!!
