RE: I never knew...
ORIGINAL: I absolutely know that self bowyers are the truest form of bowhunting - but that said, I can pick their self bows up and cane shafts with knapped heads and shoot them fairly well, they are pretty much the same bow and shooting that I do right now. Can you say the same? Ilike to use 140 grain pine trees, beveled and fluted on one side. What type of point do you like to knap for deerhunting stealthy? |
RE: I never knew...
gri22ly I've not progressed that far as a bowhunter - you're doing it a truer way, and much more difficult, and I admire that and respect it.
99.9% of compound shooters cannot say the same thing though |

RE: I never knew...
ORIGINAL: stealthycat II notice nobody wants to talk about the hatred compound shooters have for crossbows? start a thread declaring you don't mind crossbows in archery season - the rabid anti-cross zealots will come out in full elitist force exclaiming how some one else's choice of archery weapon doesn't belong in the season that compounders hijacked. By he mid to late 60's I never seen anyone shoot a longbow, they had been totally replaced by the recurve. When I got out of the Core in the late 70's I went to get a new Bow because my 67 Kodiak was showing stress on the limbs and guess what, if I wanted a recurve it had to be special ordered, went to several shops and no one had one! You will shoot about the same with a compound if you take the sights off of it, maybe worse if your a snap shooter, just faster. Fred Bear tried,to shot the compound, said he could not get use to it, the breakover threw his shot process off. I think he was a Bowhunter! |
