Dont know how you got into murdering furry woodland creatures but for me it started recently, and with a recurve bow. So glad to have learnt it in a controlled environment rather than not being able to find the animal after fucking up. So if i can point that obvious lesson out to someone that might not know it, I am quite glad to take your ridicule. Remember, not everyone is as experienced as you are. Ill be sure to tag you in any future trip reports that might come from me picking up other hunter's trash. Wonder how they learnt to hunt...

There is not a hunter anywhere on the planet, who given enough time hunting animals, has not cocked up. Even when you have decades of experience, it can still happen. Accept that as a fact of life, and do your level best to get it right each time. Rule no 1 : Always get closer.

I tried the recurve thing too...and gave it away after one trip....broke a couple of broadheads and wounded one small wallaby,enough to be fatal,but the not being able to finish it off through vegetation screen was final straw for me....a .22lr would have been more humane.
