I am already in love with the forum. Thanks for the warm welcome Don,Dean,jbat73- Nice Avatar
Danny Bows- Is that a Bama Bow in your Avatar?
Kentucky- Your state is becoming very famous in INDIA, not for the bows though but for fried chicken , Thanks to colonel Sanders, now we can taste flavors of your state.
Bjorn – Sadly there is very little or no hunting in INDIA, it is been officially banned since last three decades and sadly I do not see any chance of revival. PETA types have taken over the country and now a whole generation’s mindset is anti-hunting, though recently government has started giving permits for Wild Boar and Neelgai but with loads of pre-conditions and bureaucratic hassles
Thanks Stujay, lpckohn2, jcar315,
Dodger – Yep that handle sound somewhat familiar thanks for introducing me to all these fine folks
Thanks Lincoln, TJK68,
Killdeer - “Jeet” means victory in HINDI and Punjabi . My full name is Inderjeet Singh and yes “Bir” means brother in northern part of INDIA from where I come from.
So thanks from this “Bir” for welcoming me to the “ Bow Birhood”
Good hunting everyone.

Welcome Inder! Every journey starts with a step, and a little money!
Not to put alot of pressure on you, but maybe, just maybe, you can be a founder of a modern day revolution by introducing as many people in India to archery. With enough voices, you may be able to gain a voice to be heard! Just sayin'!
Enjoy the journey!

Don't give up hope about bowhunting one day in India. As I recall, an early Traditional Bowhunter had an article about archery in India. A prince was such as excellent shot that he put an arrow threw all 4 legs of a deer as it was leaping through the air.
I think the composite bows were used in ancient India.
