Title: longbow guys...i did it
Post by: bmb on October 12, 2009, 10:11:00 PM

well ive done it with recurve but this is a first with my new longbow, thanks to centaur.i  shot this dove coming into some pines to roost. drew the 60# montana and let the flu flu loose....it seemed to all be in slow motion as it connected and took the bird from the air. i am hooked on longbows:)
