As I mentioned in my earlier emai...Good work, Josh! <BR/><BR/>As I mentioned in my earlier email, I'm liking what I'm seeing here. Great writing, excellent thoughts, and some good hunting too!<BR/><BR/>Good luck with that recurve. I finally put mine on temporary reserve until I have adequate time and place to practice daily again. I just don't have the confidence or consistency to hunt ethically with it right now. I picked up my first compound, though, and I'm pretty blown away by what it will do. <BR/><BR/>Hunting traditional archery has definitely made me a better hunter, though, I can say that much for it. You don't know getting close, until you realize you have to be within 15-20 yards before you even consider taking a shot. And then you have to be able to raise and draw the bow without alerting the game... no mean feat since, unlike the compound, you can't just hold it back all day. <BR/><BR/>I look forward to reading about your success!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
