sorry guys, maybe i'm too old. taking (coup) is an old indian expression-meaning " i let them walk ".or i could have easily harvested..should have said so i guess. at 62 and coming back from reumatoid arthritis and dealing with mild c.o.p.d., it a joy to be in the woods observing nature once again. it is such a priviledge. each time i go out i am fascinated by nature . yesterday was slow but at 25 feet up a v'd white oak,there was wonder in the fog that hung around until 9:30,the fox squirrel that came down the tree and stopped abruptly to let a box turtle pass and also the nearby crowsuttering in never before heard soundsand pitches to these ears,softly to one another . last year i sold my recurve and compound to take up the crossbow.the Excalibur has not dissapointed.it is a great tool for someone like me. no one helps me drag, or butcher....i am not a rich person, just an everyday guy and cannot go on expensive paid hunts for caribou and whatnot.. this will have to be my last year on this lease because of cost..when iam unable to climb out of bed and experiance these things, life will be less worth living. watching ralph & vicky or jim shockey on tv is nice but not the real pill*good hunting all !
