stumping
« on: June 07, 2013, 02:17:00 AM »
I tell you stumping is addicting...after watching hours of grey Archer shooting stumps and a slow turkey season I thought I would try my hand at some long range stumps...it was wonderful and fantastic!!!!I typically don't shoot over 15 yards but I got this one  about 40   :archer2:  I'm sure it's no big deal and old hat to a lot of you but it sure was a proud moment for me thank you grey!

Stumping is great.  And a drilled 40 yd target is always a joy. Great shot!!!!

NOW I'm no expert.... BUT, that looks to me to be a double lung shot right there...  40 yds... even better...

Nothing better than than a good stump fest!!!!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

Yep....stump looks a bit like a big bear up on his haunches...and you just lunged!  Great shooting!

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

Love pushing the distance while stumping, Great shot!!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
