Come on Scot - you know me better than that... If I say I'm going recurve hunting tomorrow, by god, I am.

Matt - you're right. Any time you go bowhunting (or even GUN hunting) - you run the risk of a bad hit. If I was afraid of losing a deer, I wouldn't hunt. At all. Everytime I step out of the car with the bow in my hand, I am 100% prepared to cope with whatever happens that day - good or bad.

I know my limits, and I'm 100% prepared for whatever transpires, good or bad.

This is about trusting your gut, enjoying yourselfand beingcomfortable withyour ability to recover what you shoot, not worrying about what other people think is outside the bounds of their own ethical constraints.

I'll try to hit you guys with an update tomorrow. I'm giving myself a 10% chance of taking a shot, with a 5-7% chance of success. Ideally, I'd like to keep it under 10 yards, but I think I'd stretch it out a few more yards if given the opportunity.

Its like ridin a bike at 10 yards if you know how to do it and are a seasoned bowhunter IMO. Know your limits and you will be fine!!!

Here'shoping that you get as muchout of your hunt as you have investedpreparing for it.

RE: Huntingnet Mythbusters: Your predictions
 

Not a chance on getting a deer. But a gaurantee that you'll have fun. Good luck!

Step I: Check. Bow obtained.

A few test shots at the indoor range was enough to confirmthat I am more than capable at 10 yards.

$120 in the Bargain Cave. 50# PSE Impala Recurve, complete with ghetto finger grip doodads. I even had time to customize it with a few awesome stickers. They were $190 initially, but discounted in the cave, then I haggled it down an additional twenty bills. Man, I'm so cheap, it's actually scary.
