I leave for a Bison hunt in 8 days! We are hunting Fort Peck Indian Reservation and I am getting excited.  I was hoping that you guy's that have hunted Bison before could post your pic's.  That should drive me completely off the deep end.  Thanks!!

I have but not with a stick yet (got mine with a compound) but planning on getting after one with the recurve or longbow soon!  Keep us posted on the hunt.

Just had a bison steak Sunday night. Some kinda good. Those are big animals. Be sure you take a big cooler. Our fearless leader Terry Green got a nice one a couple of years ago. Good luck and "Keep'um Sharp".  :thumbsup:

Saw a guy on tv hunting them with a recurve. Looked like a blast.

A bit too rich for my blood though.

The only trophy you'll ever bring home is a good time. The rest is just meat. -SP

Here is a picture of the Bison I killed/harvested with my selfbow (Max) last winter, let me emphasize, this was a harvest, not a hunt.  My hunting partner, Lenny Brown, both love bison meat so we split one bison each year.

The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Good one Walt. Dont think anyone expects to come across a free ranging herd. Still must be alot of fun!

The buffalo on the rez are supposed to be basically free range. They are on 10,000 acres that are only fenced with 4 strands of barded wire. If you know Bison that fence will not keep them in if they want to go. They only allow one hunter on the ranch at a time so that the Bison do not get pushed and run off of the ranch. I can't wait! I looks to be cold up there so that might be the only draw back, winter traveling conditions.

I will be shooting a J.K. Traditions "Kanati, 57 @ 28 (61 @ my Draw), Compressed, taper cedars with Wenge and Purple heart footings, tipped with Wensel Woodsmans.

WOW Walt that is one beautiful bison.
