See........thats what I like about this forum,Rob and mobow I thought you guys were going to tear laxdad apart, you know, I use to walk to school uphill in 2 ft of snow uphill both ways,Instead everyone respects the experience of true stalk hunting and is more than willing to accept and learn the old ways. what I mean is, lets face it most of us just hang a treestand and wait.........and it still is a challenge,imagine stalking up on a deer bedded, a mature deer at that. Laxdad, welcome aboard, and I am looking forward to hearing more of your experiences.

atlasman, when someone says "we" like you did in the quote....someone says, We? What do you have a mouse in your pocket?....meaning there has to be two of you to say we, you and who else....you and the mouse in your pocket otherwise it's I.
Hell that was confusing in itself.

I said "we" because I meant "we"

very and I mean VERY FEW people possess the patience and skill required to stalk like that... by no means do I intend to compare ambush, treestand hunting to stalking... but take it from someone who's struck out more times than I can count... it aint exactly easy neither... My hat is off to anyone who takes a deer with a bow... period...
Most especially those though who stalk them.

Laxdad,
Welcome to the forum. I have to say, you are like a breath of fresh air.What I mean is, it is good to hear from someone new that has a different perspective on things and experiences to share.You speak(type) in a gentlemanly fashon.You've gain respect right away on here. We've all noticed that. I admire that.In your 71 years, I'm sure there are lots to be said. I look forward to hearing it.

On that note, imagine if someone could stalk turkey and stickem with a longbow.
Oooh or how about with a spear? Better yet, an armyknife? Best yet, a rock!
JK, but seriously though, I think someday I'd like to try stalking. Maybe I'll start out in fresh snow.




lookin forward to more posts
