Hi Ken and welcome to ozbow (Erron's probably in bed )

There are a few guys on here from Tas.

Good luck mate.

cheers

Hi matey.. as Buford says.. welcome aboard.

I'm only new at this myself and I know what your saying about being consistent. Its HARD!

I have seen one guy with 20+ years bowhunting with the trad gear shoot. He was sinking arrows into a bit of creekbank the size of your fist from about 30 paces perfectly and QUICK. He also shot a rabbit in the head from the back of a bouncing truck while all the compound guys were still reaching for an arrow to nock.

I think when you take on the traditional bow of whatever type you are signing on for a LONG time to get GOOD.

But WHEN you do, watch OUT!

There are a lot of guys from all over Oz on here and one or two in particular I believe are from Tassie so I'm sure your boys will get to see some good shooting. It will INSPIRE them.. I know it did me.

Mick.

Welcome to the site Ken. I know of one person from Tassie on here and I'm sure he will see this and reply. Hope to chat more on here now that you have found us.

Jeff

Ken,

welcome to Ozbow! As others have said, we have a couple of Tassy folk here, and I'm sure they can point you in the right direction.

Stick at it and you'll hit 'em eventually, heck, even I did!

Cheers,

Erron

Ken,

I see Gilnocky hadn't replied here, seems he missed it. He comes from Tassie. I emailed him and he said it was alright to give you his email. It is narm3457@bigpond.net.au and his name is Norman Armstrong. I'm sure he can help you out.

Jeff

P.S. I tried emailing you and it was returned undeliverable!

Ken

I also tried emailing you and it was returned as undeliverable.

Ken,

Don't worry about the spelling mate as most of us could improve in that department. Just glad you saw the replies. Hope you manage to get together with Norman.

Of course, if ever you get up Queensland way please give a holler as I would be glad to have a chat.

Nice bows and it sounds like you must have a good time with your shooting partners hey?

Good on you Ken, let me know if you need any help with pc or connection issues.

By the way, you logged this post as Guest, does that mean you can't logon at the moment under Ken?

Sorry about that Erron, the internet disconnected just as I was about to submit it so I had to reconnect and then submit it but simple me didn't realise that when I lost the connection it automatically logged me off.Had a great day out hunting with dogs bows and family didn't get to harvest anything but what the hell thats only a small part of the hunt.

Looking forward to talking to you Norman.


Cheers Ken

May your arrows fly true.

Those internet connections will do that won't they? Glad you enjoyed the day out, and have a good attitude to Traditional!
