Hunting: bow and arrow, bow and arrow, bow hunting
But for me, to hunt an animal with my bow in hand, to understand it's language, to learn it's habits, likes, dislikes, thought processing, to see that animal and hear it in ways no other human might see or hear, to me, is the ultimate respect and tribute. Every animal I have killed was a part of the natural order of things.Now, whether or not you will be able to understand this, well....it will depend on YOUR connection and understanding of nature. Every animal I have killed, died in the most honorable experience of the hunt. Furthest shot has been 40 yrds, closest was 8 ft. Guided for several outfitters or ranches. Hurt them, no....practice and practice and cleanly harvest, put a quick kill, big difference. I am out to harvest it....yes, take it's life. I have a glendel buck to shoot at but i will like to know what to use for a back stop that wont damage my arrows? I have sat with many of my animals during their last breaths, thanking them and my creator for their sacrifice and honoring them with my presence. I`ve taken numerous species, all in New Mexico, but elk are my specialty. If you are wondering if you will become cold to killing....I pray not. It is a humbling and honorable experience. It's funny, but most people do not understand the great respect, awe and love I have for the very same animals that I search out to kill. Just as the other carnivores, I am a part of the natural order of things. Most times the arrow will just hit and bounce back. None, were hit by a car, shot down by farmers and left to rot in fields, starved to death due to over population, or killed by poachers for their horns alone. Now for you, It will be up to you whether you can except the bigger picture or not. Set up a wood crossbar behind the target at a height where the woood won't get hit, then tack the carpet only to the top crossbar. The About logo is a trademark of About, Inc. The difference is that when I hunt, I am not out to hurt an animal.

To me, if you are man enough to let that arrow go, you should be man enough to experience the reality of the sacrifice. To me, to harvest such a grand creature is an honor. Understand it, embrace the reality of it...but never become unfeeling.
