Going back in time, and it's gonna get "real".
I remember when I first started deer hunting (especially bow hunting) I wanted to kill anything. Good buck, doe, spike, 5 pt, it didn't matter.
Well... I've killed a couple since then. And although I "try" to pass on dinks now, that won't be the case starting tomorrow.
It's like I'm 15 again, lol. I pity the 1st semi-adult deer that comes w/in 15 yards of me tomorrow!!! Good buck, doe, spike, 5 pt, etc.
I've wanted to try and take a deer w traditional equipment forever. I actually shot a couple hogs this summer but a deer is the real prize.
Don't get me wrong. I'd love to bust out w a buck like Sika took, and I will if a dink/doe don't walk out at 1st light! :rolleyes
I'm going to try and stick (no pun intended) with the recurve the entire season (cept maybe the wk of KS -
).
I'm feeling pretty confident. Not too sure about my choice of BH but they hit where I point them. I resharpened the 3 I practice with plus I hit the 2 new ones with the sharpener as well. They weren't as sharp as I like, straight out of the pkg.
So go easy on me if you see me post about a missed 3 pt or a whacked doe. Feathers gonna be flying everywhere in OK this wknd. 😉
I got in 3 groups of 5 (3 BH, 2 FP) practice shots at 16 yds before it got dark. All groups were similar but this was the last 5. Was really only one group that was a lil more spread out than this one. But all were killing type shots, provided the deer stands like a statue, lol.
