You better practice up

Here's the thing. I think I'm going to eventually go full trad with my hunting. I just see me heading down that road. THE challenge, there, for me......is becoming proficient enough.....and proficient enough at longer yardages.....to be an ethical hunter. I've got a long ways to go when you stretch it past 15yds.....and I wouldnt tae a shot of that distance, today.

I also got to thinking about the 3D thing and WHY I was doing it. It wasn't about hunting. It's PURE target archery. Hunting and 3D have VERY little in common....when youre talking about the best in 3D. Here I went and ordered a bow I wouldn't "likely" (though I LOVE the bow) hunt with.......put on a sight I would NEVER hunt with...a stabilizer I would NEVER hunt with......etc...

It got me thinking. I am wanting to challenge myself......but at the same time....I'd like to keep it somewhat "real". I was already thinking about going to a scope for next year. That seems so foreign to me, today.....it's not even funny.

Just a mid-stream gut check.
