[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 1410249, member: 12"] I started with a Bear Kodiak Magnum at age 14 (51 years ago). I transitioned to compounds in 1980 and went back to traditional in the 90s along with compound alternating on hunts depending on what location I hunted. I tried all the top end recurves and long bows and ended up with a Jerry Fisher Bamboo/Pacific Yew long bow and a custom osage orange self bow. I have killed deer with all of them to include flint arrowheads. Now IF I bowhunt I am forced to use a crossbow due to operations and injuries from 24 years in SOF. IF you really want to see what the long bow is capable off do some research on Howard Hill and some of his feats. He did all the shots in "Robin Hood" with Errol Flynn to include using real broadheads shooting into pieces of wood on the stuntmens chest. He won 196 tournaments in a row. [/QUOTE]
