Bow hunters.....not real men.

Real men use an Atlatl!!!!

That is one of the hardest things I have ever tried to use so I went back to my bow.

real men wait in a tree until one walks under it then jump on it and kill it with your bare hands

I'm big into hunting. I bagged an 11 pointer just last Friday (18" spread). It was nearly dark out so I started to head back to the house. I was walking with my head down because there was no way to see more than fifty yards or so and still be able to make anything out. Anyways, I looked up and sure enough, he's standing there looking at me no more than 30 yards away. I dropped to a knee and took the shot.

Taken with a cell phone camera, so its very small.

I've been using a Remington model 788 .243 for the last several years. It is quite possibly the most accurate firing weapon I have ever used. I've got a Mauser K98 (not sure what year, not WWII era) that I want to start using, but it needs a very good cleaning and to be sighted in.

good shooting there United, here in IOWA we cant use high power rifles, just shotguns,muzzleloaders or bows. but when i was alot younger are group hunted on this farmers land i got to use a .223 Rem (same as a M-16) and put down a big doe.

heres the kills from last year my dad and i got a 4 and an 8 point buck

we hunt this weekend but they say theres going to be some ice storms so we might go 2nd season dont know just yet.

i also bow hunt see on the right side of the pic is a crossbow.

a crossbow is no more aftective the anyother bow tho, i can still miss a deer at 15 yrds as any other person:-)
