    New'un

    Hi all ,

    I used to do a little shooting and bow hunting. The lvl 4 lockdown, has got me thinking about bow hunting, small game and maybe Koi. I'll be re-learning whilst I wait for my bow to arrive.

    Cheers

    Welcome Mark
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction

    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Welcome and enjoy. There are a few bow hunters on here. I'm a new comer to bows and bow hunting. It has been an interesting learning curve.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Thank you all, for the Welcome.

    I'm also a Kayak Fisherman, so I'm now having thinks, about mounting a bow holder in my Kayak, for when I'm in remote spots. I'm prolly never going to get a Deer or a big Boar, but I could see, a small pig or goat strapped over the bow

    I used to get quite a few Wallabies on Kawau Island, I wonder what the hunting is like these days.
