45. Funny, but I still get over-excited as the shot presents itself. Got to remind myself to "pick a spot".

Dang! Lots of experience on here. I bloomed late, only been at it for about 8 years. This year is my first trad year. Cant turn back time, but it is never too late to start.

Bowhunting since '59, first deer '65 at age 14. Service then a few years off then a few years with wheels and then back to the recurves. Not many blank years but this year is a challenge to say the least. But will stock with it until I can't move.

The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Don't remember when my dad started letting me go with him...but it's been around 40 years.  With traditional gear, I think this is my 21st year...I think.  Never been good with dates...have enough trouble keeping up with today...

Started with my dad when I was around 8 or 9 I'm 66 now. Then about 30-33 years ago started Bowhunting, then the stick bug bit me about 25-27 years ago and love it the most.
