Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle, and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"

- Adrian Eliot Hodgkin



Black Widow 66" longbow; 75# @ 28"; a single 916 grain Grizzlystik Safari / STOS arrow to the heart from 22 metres. Super quick kill. Had to really crawl on my belly like a snake to get close to this fellow. I need kneepads. Anyway, it was a dream come true, and I am so happy.

Well done!

Exceptional. That my friend is skill.

Thanks for sharing.

That is one hell of an archery trophy!

I remove my hat and bow deeply. You have a right to be very proud of that achievement. Fred Bear is smiling down at you.



P.S. Thank you for the Hodgkin quote. I have his book on the way.

Crocks and shorts in the bush hunting buff.

I believe I would want better foot ware.

My girlfriend had my Crocs 150m back. I stalked bare-foot. God gave us the best hunting boots for the final approach.

Congratulations... very nice!

Congratulations we are guiding more and more bowhunters everyyear and we took several water buffalos ,but always with compounds bows .

Nice!

Ben,

Congrats on a remarkable accomplishment!

The discipline & self imposed restrictions needed for a hunting

with a longbow are immense.

Well done!
