Hi Guys, Seriously now........ I have a bow (the kind archers use) that was probably bought at a garage sale. Absolutely NOTHING FANCY. The bowstring is attached and takes considerable effort to pull

Buy a target arrow. They have a relatively blunt (compared to a hunting arrow) steel tip. A dowel probably won't work. You need the fletching (feathers) to provide stability. Additional weight at th

Roger... I just can't resist! It's probably because of sleep depravation. But anyhow... There once was a ham named Robin... Who had the biggest bow in the Hood... His arrows so fair... Skyhook'd many

Buy some hunting arrows and a gadget which attaches to your bow called a "Game Tracker". I learned of this gadget in, I think it was February CQ; an article about getting wires up and around the tree

<SNIP> Just a regular wooden arrow works great for me-Walmart had a cheapo archery set for abt $16.00, small sized for a kid, but I have been able to get my stuff up 60-70 feet in my trees. I definit

To place lines in trees, I use a slingshot and a one ounce fishing weight tied to a lightweight monofilament line from a fishing reel which is attached to the slingshot using a cable tie. The slingsh

I'll add my two cents on 'Game Tracker' and other brands available. There is no question in my mind that this was really designed by a ham who came up with 'game tracking' as an alternative use ONLY

Just a short comment here on the bow and arrow routine, which is what I use...If the arrow ever gets stuck in a tree, be very careful when you try to pull it out. I use fairly light line ( and then f

I got mine at Wal-Mart. Just cheap fiberglass arrows. They have the target points, which aren't quite as lethal as the deer hunting arrows. I tape a bolt to the pointy end of the arrow and tie the fi

I am not an expert but have done a very limited amount of bow hunting and have picked up a couple of basics. 1. Since you bow you acquired takes considerable force to pull back, it sounds like a hunt

Oh yeah, meant to mention and N4SI's reply on this mentions it...I agree...most of the time you probably won't need to fully draw the bow anyway, just half draw may be enough...which will help keep t
