There was a thread recently on hunting in Africa , and the topic got debated openly, honestly and with respect, despite there being some serious ethical differences in how many of the members viewed the whole situation.
They are my favourite type of threads , because aside from the success stories and knowledge sharing, it is the courtesy, respect and sense of place that brings me here when so many other archery forums have let themselves down with crass,  disrespectful and often hurtful vindictive postings .

I likes the ones with pics of me holding up dead critters.First and foremost though my favorites are pics of friends and families out together.

My personal favorite was Osagetree's "Home grown hunting equipment" buidalong.  It was an amazing thread and story that got me addicted to Tradgang.
I also like just about any bow, quiver, arrow, etc build along, and the hunting stories are awesome medicine for when I cannot get out in the woods myself.

The "old duffer" thread is an all time favorite.

The best of the best are "hunt along" threads with alot of pics.. I have been around the world sitting here in my home office... Fun threads!

Allmost all , only ones that bug me are the ones that turn into arguments over how you personaly do it. "What type of bow,arrows,strings,broadheads and all in all equipment disagreements"    

We are all archers lets just stand together and enjoy the shooting.     :archer2:

This was one of my alltime favorites.  Osagetree's homegrown material build-a-long in 2006/07.  I'm still amazed!

I really enjoy the hunt-a-long threads too.  Since I do not have the opportunity to do much hunting, I sort of do it vicariously with y'all!

I'm drawn first to threads that promise pictures of recurves that I like.

However, my favorite threads are the ones where I learn something I didn't know. Of course it is nearly impossible to predict or tell from the title when a thread will provide enlightenment.

Some examples for me:
--I learned about fletching tape.
--I learned about Stu's Calculator.
--FF Strings and the added umph they provide
--Schafer, Blacktail, Rose Oak, Bear TD, and Predator threads.

I figure cacciatore, Jeremy, KentuckyTJ, WildmanSC, and others have cost me the price of a caribou hunt this year with their bow pictures!

My least favorite threads ... controversial subjects that I won't mention for fear of having this thread hijacked.

My favorite to date is "Old Duffers were young once". Also stories with pics of remote bowhunting camps, and Daniel Yonoindo adventures.

I love the stories which include camp sites!  love to look at different camp set ups, always makes me long for camping and hunting like we did when I was a kid, hope to do some with my son real soon.

Yep, for me it's definitely the "First Trad Deer" threads. Those posts and the joy they bring to the thread starter are truly the beginning of the journey we all love. Every time I read one I remember my own.

I like just about all of it........Really liked Izzy's ,View from your stand post. Neat to see the different spots folks are hunting from. Hopefully I get get to do a first kill deer post, after all it's only been over 40 years!!!!!
