Yeah I guess I will stick to small game, not much thrill hunting as big game but at least my bow can hunt something. My bow is kitty, I might step it up alot and purchase a Medieval Hunstman Longbow with a 50# and "72 inches long. It only cost $119 on 3riverarchery.com (great website for traditional). Then I could hunt deer, but I like compact bows (im not trying to say compound) but bows that are small but are still traditional because a 72" longbow on a 5"11 person is really big. But at least I can hunt small, meduim, and large game (if i got that bow), rather than my small bow which can only hunt small game. If anyone has shot the Medeival Hunstman bow (primitive) then please tell me. Im gonna get it, probally. Or I could make my own bow. I do that alot but I make 55-60 inch long bows with a 25-35 pull, never a 72 inch monster bow!
