Killed a buck from the ground with my longbow this past weekend
Thanks and good luck! We were in hardwoods near a funnel. Not really brushed in, but there was a briar patch behind us and a couple of 2' cedars in front. A crooked sapling growing across the spot about 6' overhead. Other than that it is pretty open in there. -

Thanks for the kind words, fellas! I can't wait to get back out there. -
Killed a buck from the ground with my longbow this past weekend
This was my first deer with a longbow. It was awesome. I was hunting from the ground with my brother. Got him at 12 yards. A really fun experience. I probably won't be able to sit in a treestand anymore. We'll see. :) Bow: 58" 60# Thunder Stick Mag (Rosewood and Elm) Broadhead: 125 gr Simmons... -

Traditional Archers and Bowhunters
Awesome, did you deal with Matt or Daniel? They're both cool dudes. My brother is good friends with all those guys there. I know them too, and I've shot a couple of 3d shoots with them. Good people, that's for sure. Howard Hill wrote a book called Hunting the Hard Way, and I recommend reading... -

Welcome to the ODT, Trout Slayer! That bow looks very nice. Love the bloody arrow pic. Those Eskimos have put down many, many animals. I make my arrows from shafts I buy from random shops online. Here's the latest batch I made. http://instagr.am/p/KgsyVHjDAE/ I also shoot my compound without... -

Any trad archers/bowhunters out there? I just received my new Howard Hill. So sweeeet! My first 3 shots at 20 yards. -
First Deer of the Season!
2.5 hours at 30% power. What about in the smoker? -
First Deer of the Season!
Congrats to you too. I cook mine in a NuWave Oven. Here's some pics. I marinated this batch in Soy sauce, Carolina BBQ sauce, Old Bay, Garlic Powder, Louisiana Hot Sauce, and salt & pepper. Tastes great! -
First Deer of the Season!
Thank you sir. Just finished chopping and packaging. About to start cooking the jerky that's been marinating. :) -
First Deer of the Season!
We just started hunting some land we're leasing in Gilmer County, and hadn't seen anything for 3 days. Decided to move to the Southern end of the property, which is away from some chopping they're doing on the land. Saw this doe come in about 6:30pm on Saturday and got a 25 yard lung shot on... -
Let's see some dead foam!
Gotcha. The plural made me think you were referring to all of us. :p -
Let's see some dead foam!
I'm not shooting a crossbow. I'm shooting a Bear Carnage. -
Let's see some dead foam!
I never really stop practicing, but I just got my new setup all squared away last weekend. 50 yards â Booyah! Let's see some tight groups from you guys. I'll show my best 80 yard group (not that impressive) if you guys show me some of yours. :D -

TechnoHunt Contest - Prize: BowTech Destroyer 340
Dang, I wanna do this! Not sure how I missed this thread. Thanks for bumping! :) -
Curveball!!!!
Cool. I'd love to shoot in one. Wonder how many n00bs end up shooting in the classes above novice? Do you estimate yardage or what? I know I should be researching this on my own, but yeah. I'm not... Also, do you have to join a club or do you just show up? -
Curveball!!!!
Very cool. I'd love to shoot in one. Are there tourneys near us? Also, what's the speed limit for novice? I have a 328fps IBO bow, and I'm shooting right under 300 with my current setup. -
???advice???
This. I have a Bear Assault and I love it. Got it for $550. I shoot well with it. My brother has a Destroyer 350 and he is amazing with it, but it feels weird to me. Just go to a bow shop and try some out. Like others have said, they're all pretty great nowadays. You don't even have to spend a...
