Was stalking another cow moose, in my stocking feet, in a bog, last hour of the last day of the NH moose hunt, when this cow walked between us. A 20 yard shot with my 60# DAS recurve, a 29" Beman 340 with 100 grain brass inserts and a 125 Razorcap took a rib, heart and lungs. She ran 20 yards and fell over like she hit a brick wall. Could say more but I am sooooo tired...killing a moose is not as hard as getting it out of the woods...even close to home. I really love that DAS recurve....best damned hunting bow I have shot in 56 years of doing this.

The best things in life....aren't things!

We must go beyond the textbooks, go out into the untrodden depths of the wilderness & travel & explore & tell the world the glories of our journey

The most frightening thing you are likely to encounter in nature is yourself.

For hunting to have a future, we must invest ourselves in future hunters.
