how many people plan on hunting deer or elk primitive.
Brock:
season opens here 15 aug....will start with my recurve but plan on pulling out my John Strunk vine maple again once it cools a little. Do I need to use knapped heads to be considered primitive or is my vine maple with doug fir and grizzly or ribtek heads good enough?
mullet:
I'll be hunting with Primitive depending on where I'm at and how desperate I start getting. I have over forty glass bows and I like to hunt some of the old Classic's with the same year arrows and points. Like hunting with my black powder, too. And when I'm really after meat the 300 Wnmag comes out. I shotgun hunt with some friends around Christmas when they run dogs for deer, a Southern Tradition.
Archery season starts 60 miles south of me in Florida tomorrow morning. Nice and warm, 70% humidity and you better be wearing a Bug Tamer suit and have a couple of Thermosals. But then it will still be like that in October. our season doesn't end till mid January, the small game till March then Turkey season till the third weekend of April. And we can hunt hogs year round. So I have plenty of time to use the weapon of my choice.
youngbowyer:
I will be hunting "half primitive". Wooden selfbow, carbon arrows.
Little John:
I am definitely in for mulies and elk. Season starts in about three or four weeks. I am buzy re habilitating Pat's Elkie bow from shooting completely over big headed elk @ ridiculously close range. Must be too flat of a cast.
JW_Halverson:
If I eat any venison this year it will have to be taken with primitive...didn't draw for any of the three deer tags I put in for gun season. From the looks of it I may not even be able to draw an archery tag where I can hunt.
Due to landowner pressure, the GF&P had 4-5 years where they put out unlimited doe tags. Now suddenly this year they have just 3,200 tags for 1.25 million acres of Black Hills. This is what happens when wildlife management is run by political pressure instead of good science.
