So we leave in 15 days and we have are setups ready to go

We decided to use the weekend to do some real life practice

So my friend Roberto who is my hunting buddy for the trip got our local taxidermist to make a duiker mold which is very similar in size

We got it and placed a ladder to the window so we could practice

Our outfitter in Campeche send a picture of the place where we would be shooting

Its from a hammock and it has some little logs to place our feet talk about traditional jungle hunting setup

I will put a picture

Thats Roberto waiting for me to get out of the way for him to take the first shot at the duiker mold similar to the brokett deer we will be hunting

There are no big trees so a tree blind is out of the question

They are very ingenious do to put a hammock between two trees

I think I will bring my bush n bag from bigjim

Here is a pic that was sent from the outfitter in Campeche

I will be hunting with a 54" td treadway black swamp longbow and fmj arrows a vpa broadhead or some woodsman havent figured what broadhead still

Adventure is in the air.

My chance to practice on the previous pic

Its about the height we will be shooting

Here is a pic of a big trophy one

This pic is taken from the web

Has someone know of a bowhunter that has had a shot at one

Today was a very nice and unforgettable shooting day with friends and  kids

I dont know what I am more excited of going on this hunting trip or seeing my 5 year old son shoot his new lh rhino bow his 3 yr old brother is also getting addicted at seeing that arrow fly away

I hope I will be with them on a hunt in the near future

So proud to be a Dad

The two little ones in the red shirt are my kids and the closest one is Roberto's , beto jr

We are so excited for this hunt and I am happy to share it with Gerardo.

I remember when I spoke with the Arturo, our outfitter, he said that it will be an "interesting" challenge with our longbows.

Hey, aren't we all looking for a challenge!

Its sure going to be an adventure and challenge as well

Thanks Beto for sharing it together

Great pics! Campeche is where I worked. Check out the Mayan ruins at Edzna while you are there. I wish you much luck!!

Great family fun! That setup looks like a macdan from a Indian shikar. Does your outfitter ever see Jaguar?

In Honduras the locals hunt them during dry weather when they come to water holes or creeks, They will hide in brush and shoot them with shot guns. A little restaurant out in Olancho state has some skull plates with varying sizes of antlers. I think they would be fun to hunt with with my bow.
