I started some serious practising with the bow for this years African hunt and shoots at least 30-60 minutes per day at my 40 yard indoor range.



This is from todays practising on 33 yards (30 meters), feels good for me!

Chister,Christer,Christer..."40yrds"...Why are you practicing at Double rifle distences???

That's a decent group at 40 but your dropping your bow-arm, all the arrows are in the backstop bag about a foot below the kill on that deer target. Luckly, you've got some more time to practice.

Seriously good luck!!!, what are you after & were will you hunt?

For me Shooting up out of a ground blind was as bit tricky at 1st, as here in the States we tend to shoot down out of trees.

Thanks for your help, I will be careful with my bow-arm next time.

I will hunt both with rifle and bow and mainly with rifle. However when we find a good oppertunity the bow will be coming along (always in the bakkie). The last two days we will hunt on a Bow hunting only camp about 20 miles south of Messina (Limpopo River). With the bow I will be happy with anything from Stenbuck to Kudu (Eland maybee). With the rifle we will go for a lot of the species that are to be found in Free State and then in the Limpopo area we will do some serious pig hunting inside an Orange Plantation.
