Well, I have been able to get out many mornings for about an hour before going to work. I have also gotten out a couple of times for around 4 hr each including this morning. I haven't seen a deer and only heard turkeys a couple of times. But a little stumping on the way out and several shots (no meat yet) at squirrels always make for some fun. I do say just being out there with a self bow, enjoying nature and the anticipation is fantastic!! I have enjoyed every minute.

thats the way iam i dont have to bring home meat, it is nice when i do but to just have the freedom to get in the woods and n-joy gods great earth is good enough for me.

  I agree. My tnedonitis in my elbows have been bothering me lately. So the other morning, i had to take my, hate to say it, c******D out because my elbows hurt so bad. Stumped with it a shot or two. Just wasn't the same. I put it away, and grabbed my selfbow. My elbows will just have to hurt. It is amazing how a stick in your hand, makes you and the woods come ALIVE! Good luck to all the rest of season. Don't hate me too bad for the "C" word.LOL

woodstick:
its all good atleast you get in the woods.

Ya, my neighbor gave my daughter and I compounds a couple of years ago (he's not hunting any more due to age and health). I had never shot a bow except once in phys ed about 35 years ago. We never even shot them, neither of us had any interest. Once we got a bent "primitive" stick in our hands, it was magic. I still love my flint locks but the sticks really get my fire started!  We will make meat one day but until then, just getting out works for me.
