RE: how many firsts with a bow
My first bow kill was a sparrow with my first bow. Age 3 in 1955.
Still haven't gotten my first griz, moose, caribou... There are still a lot of firsts left to go on my 'want to' list... If I can live long enough.

RE: how many firsts with a bow
I took my first nutria rat with a bow at about 16.
They are a nuisance down here (tear up levees and now you get paid to kill them in Louisiana).
They would all come to this one spot in a neighborhood pond at my buddy's house. We had
gotten in trouble for using a 22 in the neighborhood (with good reason), so we decided to shoot
them out of a second floor window with my bow. It was a blast, got about 6. They didn't know
what was going on due to the method utilized.
All other firsts were by gun.

RE: how many firsts with a bow
I've only ever taken 1 elk (bull) and 1 bear (black) and they were with a bow.
All my other animals fell to guns before bow and now I'm exclusively bow except for an occassional shotgun turkey. Although I've taken other turkeys prior I did take my first turkeys with my bow in KS this past spring.
