Title: Whats Your Setup & Favorite Game
Post by: Er1c Hugelier on December 24, 2007, 07:23:00 PM
Hi, i'm Eric and i'm new to the Trad world. I have been shooting for about 3 months and am a pretty good shot so far. My father owns a little side business that deals with all archery needs. But basically I just wanted to see what your set up is as in bow, arrow, tab or glove, quiver etc.

Also what is your favorite game to hunt.

Thanks and look forward to hearing from you...

56" Black Widow SA III 46@28

56" RER Vortex 46@28

Gold Tip traditional 35/55's with 50 grain brass inserts and 125 grain Snuffer heads (both bows)

here in southern WV we have a very good population of Black Bear, Whitetail Deer, Turkey and a variety of small game. With that being said, whitetail deer is my favorite.

Good longbow, mid 50's at 26".  Moderately heavy wood arrow with Ace Express broadheads, very sharp, in a Great Northern bow quiver.  I shoot with a tab over a mid wt wool glove.  Everything is my favorite to hunt, mostly squirrels and whitetails here in IL, but stalking mulies, moose or caribou really tops my list.    :campfire:    :archer:
