the weather is not that brilliant here but I was determined to go out for a hunt..... I was after another goat for the recurve …..I was soon onto a small mob of goats, there was a few kids about but the adults had something on their mind.... the billies where giving a young nanny a puzzling as she w...

You will get more "reliable" penetration with a heavier Arrow but you will make meat with that set up assuming everything is set up correctly. I would test your Arrows with Broadheads before Hunting though as a Broadhead of the same weight may fly to a different point of impact than a Fie...

hey all ....just question.... will give you a run down on the bow ..... samick phantom recurve ..60lb limbs I'm drawing 51lb...centre cut is 1/16 b50 Flemish string.....currently shooting 1916 alum arrows @28 with 125gr and 150 gr (both shoot well)..... arrow weight is 441 and 471grs is this set up ...

how do you hunt...back quiver, bow quiver...... was using a back quiver but it was a pita...then went to a quick quiver I got from the states but the heads are exposed...the back quiver I find rattle and get caught up in undergrowth etc....the bow quiver I like.......bow I'm shooting and setting up ...

Hi mate yes you must be pulling around the 40# mark if 1916's work well for you especially with 210gr head up front! What sort of distance was he shot at? Why i am so keen to know these things is that i am limited to shotting up to a max of 50#; most of my shooting is done at 45# some at 40# and i ...

Hey Ozzy, I'm a big fan of goat meat. Love a good roast leg...my mate has been making jerky from the last couple of goat trips. Comes up nice. On our trips we take a hand mincer and then make up rissoles. im a bit partial to it to Muz....had a bit of back strap last night and soaked it the marinade...

I put a post up here awhile back about getting my first goat with the longbow.....anyway put her to good use....butchered her up and I saved some meat for a jerky ...so did a marinade today and will jerky tomorrow....this is a rough recipe I will tell you.....soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, minced ...

Cheers Wayno

has got me keen Wayno....looking to get some more.....

It looks like it will be very tasty. It's just the right size. Well done. What sort of shafts are you using there? Have you ever managed to cut yourself on your exposed broadheads? I've got one of those Kwikee quivers too, but I haven't used it since the day I managed to slice myself. the bow Mick ...

it's been a long time coming but I finally got a goat with the Bama longbow http://i869.photobucket.com/albums/ab256/ozzytrapper/DSC_0360_zpsfoxztmz2.jpg 20 yard shot and the goat was down in about 30 yards http://i869.photobucket.com/albums/ab256/ozzytrapper/DSC_0363_zpswayymapf.jpg was butchered a...

right handed tony

was wondering if anyone would like to swap a samick phantom recurve for a longbow....I know they are not the top of the range bow but just after something around the same price range ...the bows specs are samick phantom..#50@28...62'' three piece looking for a long bow around that same thing mick oh...

thanks fullas....roony still playing with it , going to paper tune when I get the time .....hopefully take it out on one of our goat hunts one day....after the palmer is blooded I reckon

I was after a longbow for awhile now and I posted an add on a few forums im a member of, had one offered to me and I decided to grab it ...it's a Bama hunter longbow 65'' #55@28...now I have put the bow on a scale and at 28 it is really drawing 52...so my draw length drops her down a bit....currentl...

I am pretty sure I know that bow, was made for Phill Stubbington? It'll kill a pig with an arrow in the right spot... I'd just get my b'heads nice and sharp and put them on a 500gn arrow and go pig hunting . Shot placement will trump the other stuff if the b'head is sharp is he on another forum by ...

well the bow turned up today....nice bow just trialled some arrow through it and it spits them out pretty quick nice to shoot....I'm a little disappointed that I'm only drawing 43lb off her seems a bit of a waste not to be used at her full potential, and I was after something for pigs but I will use...

I have a palmer carbon one recurve bow on the way to me ....it is #55@30 i have a 26'' draw anyone heard of them...a few blokes in the states I know have anyone use one here in oz

was looking for a #55@28

still looking....something around the 55 to 60 centre cut and take down...but will look at one piece as well...let me know and some pics to please

thank you gentlemen...after shooting a fair few arrows this afternoon, i agree mick that 50/55 is the go and the total arrow weight is around the 500 mark ........would this be enough for goats my range is about 20 yards max that i feel confident in hitting where i want to

after a few years of trying and not trying to set my recurve up ,i have been getting a few goats with the compound bow lately i want to have a crack at them with the curve....need some help,bow is samick phantom #50@28 shooting off the shelf @ -3/16 my draw is 26''...i like wood arrows currently usi...
