Got permission to hunt a new farm, so yesterday I slipped out of work early enough to still hunt a drainage/block of timber on it to get my bearings. Using a dry creek for stealth and inching slow with an arrow nocked I notice movement up ahead. To my amazement there are 2 young bobcats playing and rolling like kittens at 25 yards. They are protected here in Illinois so I just got the show of my life! They never knew I was there until I tried to fish my camera out of my pack. They bounded off in a flash. I would have never seen that if I didn't hunt with tradtional tackle. I move slower, soak in more, and enjoy my jaunts more with my recurve in my hand. Just wanted to share that!
