The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is no where as important as being able to place it in the correct spot....!

Re: Bamboo Backed Red Coat
Hi Jeff,
Thank you...
I was lucky enough to pickup this Glenn Newell bow from a mate...
It’s a obviously a bamboo backed longbow with the belly wood being a species of Eucalyptus from the Gordonvale district at Cairns...
It’s a beautiful bow to shoot, very quiet and dead in the hand...
And as always I’m shooting woods...
Thank you...

Hey Jeff,
Yes mate I’ve pretty much shot wood since getting my first bow... I started with a set of alloy arrows and then a couple dozen carbons followed by the woods and never looked back...
For some reason I get so much more satisfaction in making and taking game with woods...
By the way I’ve been using the 3 blade Woodsmans on all my deer and small game hunts... I’ve been finding them to be very effective...
Cheers Guy

That's it mate; same here and I have no desire to try those syntharras.Guy Layton wrote: ↑Sun Sep 01, 2019 5:58 pm For some reason I get so much more satisfaction in making and taking game with woods...
I'll just keep using the Ribbies as I have a good supply of them. Sadly I haven't got out for a hunt for quite some time but one day again hopefully. Enjoy your time out bush mate.Guy Layton wrote: ↑Sun Sep 01, 2019 5:58 pm By the way I’ve been using the 3 blade Woodsmans on all my deer and small game hunts...

Thanks Eddie,
Always good to get out for a walk... Seems to balance life well for me...
