I've always been serious about Bowhunting, but for a long time I didn't have a clue what I was doing. I have never hunted Big Game with a Gun. I don't think that makes me better or worse of a Hunter. It was just my choice.

I still learn something every year about the animals I chase.You get too Old to learn then you are just not paying attention.

I Love Bowhunting. I think the best advice for young Bowhunters is to keep it fun and progress at a pace that makes it fun. Hunt for yourself! with your own goals and expectations, and never let anyone that talks down your accomplishments cause you to get discouraged.

It's a personal sport, not a competetion. You are always winning if you are having Fun!;)

I'm a hunter period.
Bow, gun, spear, rocks or whatever.
I've been to the petting zoo and tried chocking the deer.
Yeah I got it bad!
I just love huntin'.

By the way Magic, I hope your doe didn't jump your string!

Why does there have to be parameters around everything? Why is there a need for categories? Is a "serious" bowhunter better than a "hobby" bowhunter? I thought the pecking order only existed in the wild....there's an apparent pecking order in the hunting world as well. It's commonly called.....Ego. I'm seriously not sure if there's enough bandwidth on this forum for some all of us and some of our egos......I'm gonna have to get a bigger monitor.....Or better yet......go find somewhere else to play. This crap in this forum is absolutely, positively, downright freaking juvenile at times.....

I'm out. Later.
