So I got a new longbow from John at JT Traditional archery while I was elk hunting this year. And when I got home back to Tx. I took it out for its first hunt and was fortunate to have some hogs walk out in front of me. I made a pretty good hit on a sow and a short trail later I had my first kill with the new carbon longbow..
I got a new ILF recurve in a trade and have been trying to shoot with a dedicated form with 3-under. The bow is 44@30-64in and I’m shooten it pretty good and getting my personal shot down I think. I’m shooting 3-under with about a 3-5 second hold and pulling through the shot. I just look at what I want to hit not using a gap system , it’s the way I want to shoot and not based on anyone else’s.
So I’m working on my shot and slowly getting better and I’m also enjoying the lighter bows ( my left wrist has been bothering me some , the lighter bows don’t seem to bother it as much ). I haven’t been real serious about chasing deer because of the dang heat and other crap going on. Also have been trying the tradvanes and I have to say I like em. With the new rig and somewhat cooler temps it’s time to get some blood on the new bow. Last week with a cold front in I was in the tree full of confidence and when a nice buck with spit G2 came by at about 17yds. I hit full draw locked in low on his heart held and released a beautiful arrow that flew just under his chest.....
