The Stuttering Bowhunter

pete p

Over the past couple of yrs my good buddy JD Lund of Whisperstick Bows has been heading north to MN to chase whitetails with me. All of the spots we hunt are tight thick cover either on the ground or in the tree. The tree that this deer was shot out of literally looks like a ground blind 15 ft off the ground....a thick dense spruce that seems to have been made just for a bowhunter. I dont even have a stand hung in it. You sit on a branch and lean against the tree and theres a branch to rest your feet on too. Its like a nest up there, I'll have to get some pics of it.

Back to the bow....the Recon47.  Shes 47 inches of super smooth, deadly quick deer killin stealth bow. The bow in the pic is a 2pc with a slick t/d system of JD's design.

A few weeks prior to the hunt Jim told me he had an idea brewing for a short ambush style bow. Then he showed up with this little black glass osage beauty. I wont pretend to understand how this bow can be smooth and honestly i dont care. What i do know is that under 20yds or less this is an incredible hunting tool made for a specific application....chasing game in thick cover.  No joke, this little stick is smooooth. The best i can describe it is that the draw cycle feels like your stretching a spring and at 28" it doesnt feel like she wants to stop!!

Nice one.......   :thumbsup:   Is this the result from the Kayak Hunt and the old timers tips?

Is the Recon47 a standard offering from JD or was your bow a prototype.  I didn't see it on his web site?
