    I had no lessons and bought a cheap compound and set it up off YouTube vids and was shooting pretty straight away. I found trad a different ball game, it's harder ( my opinion anyway ) and took me a good while to get a were I am now. I settled on 3 under gap style. But I just prefer trad , I shoot at about 20 yards and can hit the bottom of a coke can, so happy with that. Am sure compound is a lot more accurate, but I do just prefer trad mate

    Tbh mate yeah and all the cheap Chinese ones I didn't rate. I started buying my arrows from Merlin Archey UK , just found them better suited to me. But the chinese bows I rated , such as the black hunters and the T Bows ( Hoyt copies ) were great for what I wanted. Edited to add, I actually did get some cheap chinese arrows off eBay for my compound which did shoot fine, but for trad archery a better quality arrow I got better results.

    No proper whips mate, just some are very small
  8. Leo Sayer
    Out of likes mate, some I've seen are absolutely tiny

    Must admit never had much to do with whippets over the years as I always kept bigger dogs. Obviously before the ban how did they get on with other things ( Only edible game ) ? I imagine game enough, but perhaps not the size and strength there.

    He could always use a bit of talc to pull them on

    The Redtail x Harris became popular in recent years for falconry. Our old postman bred them, I seen them them , but never seen them hunt. But heard good reports .

    Been watching him mate , he does some nice quivers and shoots from the ground big Jim’s bow club and shatterproof archery do the tested updated black hunters

    More open were I am on my permissions. I also I think if I was to go abroad and legally hunt, then take quarry with a primitive recurve shooting of the shelf no sights. Is the ultimate test , to get within 15 yards of your intended quarry . Then to draw and hold that weight until a shot presented it's self is very hard work and every kill very hard worked for and I would imagine very rewarding.

    But could you take down a Russian helicopter lol
  17. Leo Sayer
    I got 2 and fitted custom strings, I was lucky draw weights on mine are fine. They are actually really nice and great to shoot

    Absolutely agree for precision , range and accuracy a compound cannot be beat . However on my permissions they are a lot of footpaths with general public , so when practising at targets I'd rather look like robin hood than Rambo 3. I think a compound would bring a lot of unwanted attention and also awkward to put in a bag were as a recurve will take down and assemble in mins. No sights to get knocked and easy maintenance.

    I have a couple of black hunters , take a look at those. I really enjoy these also. They have a huge worldwide following

    Honestly Mac it was a China knock off ov a more expensive bow. But it's the first one I,d grab . Am pondering about buying another in a higher poundage to be honest
  21. Leo Sayer
    This is one of my favourite bows , it’s a 40lb @my draw , 2 peace take down longbow. Shoots great , takes minutes to assemble and fits nice in a rucksack. Very pleased with this little bow and a pleasure to shoot .
  22. Leo Sayer
    I got a budget compound , shoots accurate and I enjoyed it . But I found my passion with trad bows tbh . Just love the simplicity of them .

    If you left a tent round here like that the spice heads would move in it lol. No luck with the saddle mate. But funny enough yesterday I was just out ratching about in the pissing down rain and nipped into a small block of woodland/cover to check on a salt lick and look at tracks. And I had 3 does about 25 yards away making there way through the cover in brambles to the left of me, before the dog made a yick and spooked them. Then behind me was a buck literally a minute later until again he clocked me and the dog . It's just getting that 20 yard perfect camera pic. I've only ever tried 1st lig
