Killdeer Rocks!!!
« on: March 11, 2012, 02:24:00 PM »
Just wanted to send out a HUGE "Thank You" to Killdeer for taking me out to the range, letting me shoot a bunch of her bows, and generally helping this newbie get started off on the right traditional foot.  I am truly humbled by her generosity and patience.  (I only lost one arrow and broke one arrow)    :(  

Anyhow, a very heartfelt thanks to Killdeer!!!   :notworthy:

To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

good thing i wasnt there...i mightve been tempted to steal her bows. That lady has a stable of bows that would make most of us drool. i think she walked out of K-zoo with a shrew, a holm made and an acs. add to that her morrisions and centaurs and whatever else shes got, yep im jealous.

She was packing at the time.    :D  
Mr. Kingsnake appeared to me to have been shooting trad bows for a long time. He says he is new to it, so you see right away that his veracity is in serious question. Quick wit, old enough to get most of my jokes, and a consistent shooter, I am sure that he will be outshooting most of us very soon.    :knothead:

I hoard my horde. But a horde has its uses. Ghengis Khan knew that!

Killie,

I thought he meant he drove by your house and saw you on the front porch in your rocking chair.  :)

I wish!
I don' have a porch, or a rocker. Even my balcony is off limits, as they are doing renovations.    :(

I am absolutely loving the camaradarie of this group!  And, YES, I AM new to trad ...at least new to the shooting part of trad.  I have been studying for a while in order to 'prepare' myself for the transition, but Killdeer has . . .uh . . .provided my first experience.  ;)  

Oh, and the hoarde is every bit as awesome as it sounds.  Each bow is really cool in its own way.  The closest feeling I can relate the transition from compound to trad is in diving, when switching from tethered surface supply air to the freedom of SCUBA . . .or even free diving.  You guessed it . . .I'm hooked.

Killdeer . . .normally I would have been packing, too, but I tried to show a LITTLE respect for the sanctity of the trad archer's world.    :archer:
