I just got home from 6 miles into the wilderness with my recurve.  I think I should have had an atalatl for all the opportunities I had.  I passed on a muley buck that I am regretting, but it would have been a heck of a pack for a buck I can shoot in my backyard.  I called in plenty of big bulls but no spikes yet.  I'm heading out again after my feet heal....probably Friday.  9 blisters need attention.
