wow ... kindred spirits ? I think so ........ !!!!!!!!!
« on: May 16, 2012, 10:56:00 PM »
Got my copy of the new Steve Gorr / Fred Anderson DVD last night ... " Pure Bowhunting "

I know members have posted about it elsewhere but i thought I'd tell you my thoughts ... yep , I am that impressed .

These are gents that I'd love to share a camp with .

..... these lads are  Archers who know there equipment , men who understand the rarity and importance of a good hunting partner ... and hunters who enjoy the chase for the thrill of mixing it up in the wild places with critters who so often smarter than we are .

Kindred spirits ? I think so ... anyone who knows the joy of watching an arrow fly ... just for the heck of it atop the wild places we hunt and explore  ?
Yep ... Kindred spirit indeed ...

I heard no mention of FPS , carbon , no infomercial stuff ..... but a bunch of good natured heckling , laughter and admiration for the critters they're chasing .

And the hunting ? Wow ... Antelope , elk and deer ...... all in  country that I'll likely only ever read about , maybe see on screen .
But there is no whoopin' and hollerin in any distasteful way ... but deserved smiles aplenty at the successful shots that got the freezer filled ...

The footage shows off some country that is just stunning , the  Cascade's are my idea of heaven .

And call me romantic and a big ol' archery nerd , but watching guys stump shoot is just as much fun for me as watching them hunt .

I think you wouldn't sit to long in camp with these lads as there would always be another arrow breaking target being picked out for you .....

... but its about as good as an archery dvd gets  ... let alone a hunting DVD .

I think these guys and their DVD  are in some ways what embodies , hunting , archery and 'stick and string' archery ...
Archery is meant to be fun ...
And these lads do a fine job of showing why ......

Best thing I have seen in ages .

Lets put this up top. Ben summed it up real good.
Anybody that likes to hunt and shoot an be real with a bow in hand, will enjoy this dvd.
Steve Gorr and his buddies have some fun and shared it with us. GOOD STUFF!
Contact Steve at the link in Bens post and look at the two DVDs, BOWHUNTING REFLECTIONS and PURE BOWHUNTING.

Ben -
I know that you are a little bashful at times, but I wish you could overcome that. Please, just tell us what you really think about the DVD.    :bigsmyl:
