A dream come true
Congratulations hope next pic will be with the first game got with this bow
That what I wich for you
in reply to: Les loups et les moutons #63545France is a total of 138 millions acres
with 78 millions agricultural production ( 20% of total EU production 1st place )
38 millions woods
25 % of French population is rural
And with Pyrenees( beteween France and Spain ) and Alpes mountains ( France /Italy )
This left larges places to hunt
And something like 4 or 5000 kilometers see front for waterfowl hunting
Hope this can help to imagine France
European wild boar hunting video Enjoy !
in reply to: Les loups et les moutons #62234This is true we have wolves
France is not a very big country and we loose woods every years because population growing
On an other side from long time the shepherds were in the habit of taking their animals spend the summer in the mountains let them fend for themselves and recover in the fall
Since wolves have been reintroduced this is not possible and shepherds have few solutions and they are expensive and make them working
Villages close from wolves are happy : this bring tourists as bears does in Pyrenees mountains ( between France and Spain )
I’m close from Italy where wolves and sheep share same parts of Alpes mountains , as it is in Spanish Pyrenees in these two country shepherds and wolves live without problem
On an other hand a wolves need something like one red deer a week Easy to imagine how may red and big deers ( and boars ) hunters do not have in hunting territories
Bears are not enough in Pyrenees to be a problem And it’s very rare to see or to find they traces
One of French specialty seams to have a group of anti each time an other group have any idea !
And this is not limited about wolves !
We have a law that makes hunters responsible for game damage and french hunting association have to pay for all damage .
If a boar make damage in a vineyard it easy for the owner to charge hunters for plots that have not grown up by saying that the boars have destroyed.
And owners vineyard are also hunters !:?:
Here, as in many other place when you scratch the surface of things, it is often a $$$ question that is discovered

in reply to: PSE COYOTE #52238Hi,
As you are in Europe you should have a look at the best recureve I try
I also saw many beautiful and often much more beautiful but all very far from Borderbows performance
Mine is 42 Lbs and with my small 28inches draw lenght I send 530Grs arrows at 210 P/S sometime more
210 is minimum
If you got 5” have a look here and do not hesitate to call Sid owner of Borderbows
He’s like his bows, a fantastic and very kind guy
Jpc from France
in reply to: New Elkheart #45162Very nice bow
Hope it doesn’t stay virgin too long
in reply to: Would you shoot a bedded animal? #45155I think difficult to have a clean kill with a bedded animal
I do not shoot bedded animal as do not shoot a bird on the ground
in reply to: Ground Hunnting #24747After more than two decade hunting from TS I switched for ground hunting pleasure is without comparison, satisfaction beyond compare
in reply to: My Trad Bowhunting season is (not) over! #17562Hi Alex,
You wrote :
So I’m done with the Shrew for this year… I think… I went and got my untouched 10 year old compound out of my storage place upstate, and after 5 minutes, I had groups of 3 arrows within 1/2 inch from each other at 15, 20, and 25 yards. I want to keep hunting, but I don’t want to wound another deer.
France is not different I know ball trap champions who are true strainers when hunting
I think a good bowhunter must shoot game as he shoot 3D target without emotion, without trembling, without his heart accelerates
And this, is not the case for all
if you have the opportunity get unarmed on a TS in a place where bears are, look at them moving eating a few meters from you
When you remain the like you’re in front of your TV you can hunt with a bow with every chance of success
If not look at small game for a time 😕
in reply to: Footing for gt 7595 traditional #15773The first two digits indicate outside diameter
the other two shaft thickness
13 is too weak for hunting ( and 3d shooting )
never less than xx 17 for a correct shaft if you want shoot alu ( last century arrow material ):?::lol:
in reply to: Happy birthday old man Alex B! #7907From south of France
Wish you a great Birthday
in reply to: Neck Knife #55298As long knifes exist we wear them at belt
When a dick nife ?
in reply to: Wool Poncho #54110I live in south of France and weather is not very hard here But in less than one hour I can be more than 3000 feet and it’s very cold with high moisture
During years I tried lot of special cloths but never found better than FILSON and his wool.
certainly not the cheapest nor the lightest but cold or rain and sometime rain and cold are not problem
They also stay very quiet
When you buy Filson you buy for life time ! That’s true ! As my mother said : We’r not rich enough to buy cheap
Filson (http://www.filson.com/ ) first quality wool allows you to stay hours under rain without be wet
