    Me too, I just like the thought of doing something a bit more primitive, even though archery equipment now days is pretty cutting edge. I would love to get to the point in the future where I can hunt with a recurve.

    My primitive gun hunting is iron sights lol

    Nothing better than sitting in a tree with a bow though especially in MI because gun season gets frigid.

    I enjoy bowhunting alot more that firearm but I dont have much of preference. For whatever reason firearm just seems alot less stressful. I csn grab shotgun and hop out of truck, where bowhunting theres a whole process. Like said mostly just like to change it up some. Do find that I dont sit in one place as often with gun, kinda like the challenge of somewhat spot and stalk with gun.

    I love and enjoy bowhunting a lot more than gun hunting. But I still gun hunt every year. The reason I got into bow hunting though is because gun hunting got to easy for me.

    I think the general consensus is the forum will be the primary format but we do have a BBM group going for anyone that wants to join. I know i check both so i won't miss anything going on. BBM is good for the one on one conversations and the forum is better for the group convos.

    I went to the bow shop after work today. I picked up a half dozen Beman Bowhunter arrows and a pack of Wasp Jak-hammer broadheads.

    Can't wait to send one through the boiler room.

    I just put in for the deer lottery for Maine today hopefully I get lucky and get another doe tag so I can put down another one while I'm there this year.

    I got my new arrows in yesterday. Got them cut and inserts in. I'll test how they fly today after work.

    Sorry I'm a little behind lol. I work a week on week off and on and on my weeks off I work on a farm tell bow season starts lol. This will be my 4-5th season doing the contest and I've made some great friends the last couple years that I talk to regularly still. I haven't taken a big buck yet in the 8 years I've been hunting. I was a late bloomer into the bow hunting world but man I'm sure glad my father in law introduced me to it! I only hunt with a bow unless I'm chasing doves! I don't have much of a hit list yet this year since I've had to start hunting a new lease and the guy I farm for gave up the pasture I hunted last year. I always good for a doe or 2 and I've had my chances at good bucks but failed to close the deal do to buck fever :/ I've got one buck right now that is my only shooter but from what I've gathered from the guys that hunt around my lease that there are some big big deer around. I forgot to mention I hunt in Central Kansas. Not the best pictures they are screen shots from a trail camera video lol. I shoot a 70# Halon 5 with a HHA sight and Carbon express 250's Mathews edition and 100 grain Rage Hypodermics. I also enjoy self filming my hunts! If you guys want hop on over and give my Facebook Page Kansas Bucks-n-Beards a like!
