My first kill with a traditional bow
« on: November 19, 2019, 04:00:09 AM »
Hi all,



After lots of practice and a handful of unsuccessful stalks, I got it done recently with this billy goat. It was a lot of effort to get it all on film in a spot and stalk scenario but I was determined to make my first animal with a traditional bow something special and document the moment for myself.







Here is the video.

Thank you to everyone on this forum who has helped me in various ways through advice or acquisition of gear. I really do appreciate it. :)

Absolutely fantastic Dylan.
Extremely well done.

Really pleased for you.

Trad bows really puts the "hunt" back into hunting hey?

Best

Good hunting to you all.

Most of all, may the appreciation and the gratitude of what we do keep us humble......
