Have a score to settle with you Arty so pretty sure Ill be there with a vengeance LOL.
Carl.

Had a very nice day in the scrub by my self hunting Red deer with my Kodiak 59 trad bow and it scored its first red Deer. Should get my self a camera man though,Bugga! If you look very closely to the stick overhanging on the shot you"ll see that it moves on the shot from the arrow feather must ...

If your out there enough you too can learn these calls just by instinct and through time spent with your quarry and a bit of common sense.Havent found an animal yet that you can't call!

Your of to a great start there mate and sounds like you've found your purpose in life!
Captain

I do like your ingenuity Muz and may pick up an idea from your post,looking forward to see some results now! Ha Ha.
Good luck.
Cap.

Getting it done in true trad style! Very Jealous .
Captain.

G'day! Bowmerang is a 3 peace recurve bow that has been put into circulation for those who wish to take it hunting or just be photo graphed in it's presence,ha ha. If your where interested in taking the Bowmerang out for a hunt or perhaps just target shots in the back yard you can! But you would hav...

Would like to share a short video of me killing a VP!

Thanks Cap.

Moderators are just like Police! Never around when needed. Way too much porn for this old bloke.
That is one nice Bow mate.
Carl.

This is easy! 1st thing you need to be a good hunter is to be a good shot with your weapon of choice if you intend to kill it. 2nd thing you need to be a good hunter is to find you prey your self and I mean not by making a phone call to pay to play I mean go find the animal your self. 3rd thing you ...

Wow! my kind of trip! You blokes where living the dream and having a ball out there, wishing I was there.
You hunt with a heavy bit of gear MUZ and it worked perfectly on that Buff,nice.
Captain.

Great to see your post of the trip Rod. I was so lucky to of had my first Boar charge and it was with you! ha ha. The whole of us had the best time up there and that Goat Curry went down a treat with all of us. The Camp was ruff but we coped well in such harsh conditions.I had the best time hunting ...

Thanks every one for your replies, very much appreciated and yous too Jeff
Carl.

Perhaps you should have a more appropriate handle than "stickbow Hunter" ! You think so; well I like it and that is all that matters. Afterall I have been Bowhunting with my longbows and self bows for well over thirty years. Here is some advice from me! The kill area front on with a Samba...

Congrats on taking those magnificent animals Captain! In saying the above I do feel compelled to bring to the attention of those new and perhaps not so new to Bowhunting that the shot on the stag was a very low percentage shot and not one that should be taken IMO. The kill area of a front on shot l...

Went out for a sit and wait approach on a well used Sambar trail leading down out into some in proved pasture and I got lucky.

Cheers Wayno

Ticked a few of my boxes! Something that I hope most Bow Hunters can relate too.
Cap.

Thanks very much for the replies guy's☺
Not a big fan of heavy arrows.The arrow had hit aa ribb dead center on the way in and left a bulge on the other side.

When I saw the title one name popped into my head! Jack Spinks. Nicely done Jack and same to you slowhand BUT I must confess that I recon Iv'e missed more foxes with the trad than you 2 put together.LOL. Try getting it on video by your self with any bow little own a trad.I whistled in 14 foxes befor...

I had a look at the ABA records, not that I'm a fan of record books, but it truely puts into perspective how rare and awesome that stag is. Particularly for a Trad archer. Once again, well done. Thank you DunnoNuthin I too have looked at the records and spoke the a representative from ABA and I can...

Thanks Muz.
If I was home in June you could call in but thats the best time for me to be up in the NT and Gulf country.
Carl.

Great to see your post and I think that the humble little Bunny is one of the hardest to shoot with the curve.
Well done.
Cap.

Well done. When you put in the hours like you do, you deserve to bump into a stag like that. Have you scored/measured him yet? I'm dreaming of/planning my maiden Sambar hunt next winter. I knew they are tough, but a four hour tracking job, that is something else, especially given the shot placement...

Thanks Wayno! Don't think I'm likely to do better with the Sambar in this life.lol.
So have to keep playing the same old hand.
Cap.

Took this Sambar Stag with my Bear Kodiak 59 Recurve Bow several months back now but still living the dream.
