    2021-22 Traditional bow kills

    I'm in GA and the hogs are everywhere! It's crazy how fast they multiply. It's just tough chasing them through the terrain around here.

    Black hunter longbow

    I've got a '64 Kmag that I absolutely love. Shoots smooth as can be. I seen all the positive reviews of the Black Hunter, so I ordered the longbow to try and possibly become my new hunting rig. After a couple shots, I was sold. Replaced the original string with a nice D97 flemish string and it's...

    Black hunter longbow

    I have a vintage Bear, but performance is nowhere near the Black Hunter. The Bear is much easier on the eyes, but that's about it.

    Your setup

    Black hunter longbow

    I absolutely love mine! It shoots as good as a custom bow and costs a very small fraction of the price. I will recommend getting a good string for it though. The one that comes with it is junk.

    I’ve been told…

    Man, I couldn't agree more with both of your posts. This one is spot on for me too. You probably won't catch me shooting a compound or xbow, but I have no issue with folks using them. I do enjoy breaking out my rifles every now and then for a stroll through the woods. Actually took my grandpa's...

    Well said and couldn't agree more!

    I’ve been told…

    Yes, you can. I did it for a few years, but it wasn't until I put the compound down for good that my form and accuracy increased by a noticeable amount. I still have my compound, but it only gets shot by friends when they want to shoot. I set it up for a buddy before our bow season. I shot it a...

    Trophyline/Novix Mini Sticks with Single Step

    I'm close to that with my pack and stuff on as I climb. Haven't had a single issue and none of the bolts have bent. When stacked the bolt head still goes into the hole of the next stick.
