I have never purchased a biggame tag for gun. This is the start of my 51st year of Bowhunting biggame & some where over 100 + Deer. My 1st 34 or 38Biggame animals were taken with recurve or longbow & wood arrows. My 1st Deer was a Doe shot at 35 yds. with a 45# Eddings recurve, wood arrow hand fletched 4 flech in 1958 my 2nd year of Bowhuning. I have Squirrell, Rabbits, Coons, 1 flying Pheasant, 2 grouse Among various other small game-ALL WITH A BOW.
I have been fortunate to have enjoyed MANY Bowhunting trips with Elk, Black Bears, Caribou, Mule Deer & other Biggame. I have been blessed & now I enjoy my 1 son & 2 Daughters going with me. It just gets better.
