If this is your first hunting season or whether you decide to switch your weapon from a gun to a bow, these tips are for you. To start or continue your journey with nature in this good activity you need the right tools and the proper education on the ethics of this sport. Starting with the many types of bows and arrows. These are your main archery hunting equipment.
It is very important that the arrows fit the bow because it can make all the difference. Will you be using a traditional bow, a recurve, or a crossbow? Well, the main one of choice for hunting large game should be a compound bow. These can be bought in camouflage instead of a regular solid color.
Whichever bow you decide to go for, unless it is a crossbow, you need to make sure the draw weight is correct. While it is easy to say you have an 80 pound draw weight bow, you need to make you have the actual strength for it. The last thing you need is to be eyeing the target and losing focus on it because one is dealing with the lack of draw strength. This will only frustrate you more and tire you out in no time.
So after you got your preferred bow it is time to go for the right length in arrows. Now if you will be hunting it is recommended that you use the broadhead hunting tip. While hunting this the traditional type of tip but now a days these are available with three blades. If you will be using a crossbow the arrows are a little smaller but just as effective since the tips and varieties are the same for take down.
So after you have your bow and arrows you need your game bag for the meat. A true hunter always takes as much meat as he or she can back. It is regarded unethical to only take an animal down for the head and leave the rest of the meat to rot. So avoid taking down a large animal if you will be walking back alone.
Additional items you need to remember are your knife or knives and the binoculars for the wait, these are important too. A camouflaged sweater or hat should always go with camouflaged suit. But don't forget the rain jacket just in case!
Try attaching as many items to your suit or in the many pockets provided because once you take down your kill you will be hauling back the meat and the bow and with these your hands will be full. Even carry a small backpack in order to keep your hands as free as possible. Also remember to bring many arrows in case you lose a few.
This particular sport is all about patience. You also need to practice and make sure you know how to handle yourself in case your bow were to break or you lose all your arrows. If you have the right equipment and it all fits and feels comfortable then you are good to go. This sport is practiced for years and hunters know that the bow needs to be constantly checked and kept up to date so as to avoid foolish accidents.
