[QUOTE="ColoradoElkHunter, post: 2130356, member: 116731"] Started shooting a very small bow when I was 6 in PA. An uncle got it for me who loved archery hunting. First bow hunt when I was 12 with that same uncle. Fifty years later I still have his bow, a Bear Grizzly recurve, on a rack next to my Mathews. Lucky I live in Colorado where I can elk hunt all of September then head to another part of the state with an OTC extra tag for rifle. I have been using a 3 pin for many years and learned to bracket the pins to adjust for distance. First pin set for 30yds. 1/2 inch high at 20yds and the elk and deer never notice. Hurt my shoulder this last fall remodeling for my wife. Now just hoping to pull my bow back again once the snow melts so I don't miss the opening day of archery for the first time since I was 12. Thankfully I have a few months to rehab. Nothing like seeing them blink at 10-20yds and they don't know you're there. Love rifle but archery always seems much more personal when you're that close.
