Young Bowhunters
 

I made this thread for all the young bow hunters on this website. I want to know how many of us on here bow hunt, and how much success we have had.

For me, I have been bowhuntingfor 2 years, with this upcoming season being my 3rd. In 2006, i took a 6 point buck from the ground with my bow, and in 2007, i tooka doe from one of my treestands. I use a Hoyt Lazertec and Easton Epic arrows.

i have been bow hunting for 1 year now (2007) and killed a BIG doe with my bow @ 28 yards, i shoot a diamond triumph with beman carbon arrows andrage broadheads!! congrads siman08 on those deer!

RE: Young Bowhunters
 

Thanks Bugle. IMO, any bow kill is worth its weight in salt. Theres so many factors that go into just the shot, let alone the hunt.

btw - no pictures? :D

RE: Young Bowhunters

RE: Young Bowhunters
 

Just got my bow this year in April. I got a Hoyt Kobalt, i shoot Easton Axis ST and Muzzy MX-4s. My first bow kill was a groundhog in my backyard. I was out target shooting and it came out from my garage. Shot it right in the head at 20 yards

AH, someday when you have the time and cash, you should take up bowhunting. Its totally worth your time.

RE: Young Bowhunters
 

I'll agree there. I have spent more money on hunting this year than ever before, but I'm having a great time!!!! I love bowhunting!!!!:D:D Other than it is hard on a college budget......;)[8D]

Will, i think you and me are in the same boat. For me it felt like the first 2 years were a total learning proccess, and this is the year im going to finally put all my knowledge on the line. Ive done hours of reading, and hours of scouting and ive never been more excited for bow season than i am this year. This is the first time where i actually feel like i have a chance, and not just some blind luck.

Cant wait for the seaosn to start bro :D

RE: Young Bowhunters
 

I have been bowhunting for 2 years this being my third. I shot a doe my first year bowhunting, She jumped after the shot and I nailed her in the neck behind the head. Never found her.:(
I shoot a Diamond Marquis, will be shooting Carbon Express Maxima Hunter arrows, and Rage Broadheads.

Strange......Just yesterday I was talking to an older friend of mine and we were discussing the upcoming season.

I told him I have never felt more prepared for a hunting season than this year. I've basically been getting ready since the season ended last year.

I, too, feel I have had pretty much blind luck so far. But this year I am confident, didn't say I know everything, but I think I have done everything in my power to make this my best hunting season yet.

Good luck to you thisfall man.:D

Im chompin' at the bit as well.:)

RE: Young Bowhunters
 

8point ~ The Matrix is one mean sight, i swear by it.

Will - Im sure well have many more hunting related conversations before the opener

RE: Young Bowhunters
 

That cash part is gonna be my downfall :D Besides i'd prolly try to shoot the apple above my head myself and put an arrow through my skull

RE: Young Bowhunters
