[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 840659, member: 11717"] Ya know, I started bow hunting with a fiberglass semi recurve Bear bow about 40 years ago. Maybe you were born then? When I was a 10 year old kid I was making my own bows and arrows out of ash and maple saplings. I know all about challenges. I have stalked within spitting distance of mule deer. Been in the middle of a herd of antelope with the shadow of the herd buck on my body, bow in hand. I doubt you or many other peolple will ever be able to say that. I can also guarantee you, that in some country and circumstances, you will never get within a half mile of a buck antelope that knows it's being hunted. So please don't give us the shooter/hunter crap :rolleyes: Many of us in this Long Range Hunting forum are avid skilled bow hunters. That said, this particular sub forum is for long range hunting... not bow hunting. There is a sub forum for bow hunting so I would suggest that you should talk bow hunting there and decline from making disparaging remarks about the skill set and challenges it requires to make cold bore shots in various environmental at extreme distances.
