Default 7 Weeks From Today & Counting...

till my hunting partner & I head out for a long awaited tundra bowhunt for the majestic Quebec/Labrador Caribou!! We're hunting w/Jack Hume Adventures from Sept 9th thru 15th & will be taking both bow types (a recurve AND a longbow LOL!).Just one nice bull would be a real blessing, but Good Lord willing I'd love to take a nice bull with each - that'd be AWESOME!! I've waited on this a looooong time (20+ yrs) & now it's reallyhappening - man I'm PUMPED!!!

tick tock tick tock tick tock.......

I seen a local outdoor show and they were with that outfitter. They had alot of sucessful hunts with bows and guns. Good luck. P.S We'll be expecting pics of the trip when you get back.

I wish ya the best of luck. You are a lucky man. Vary nice bows and great paint jop on them arrows. How much practice dose it take to switch long to recurve. I started shooting a recurve, but now that I shoot my long bow I cant hit anything with the curve.
