..All the best on your hunting excursions and you should come to New Zealand for a hunt ...one tip tho you better be fairly fit lots of hill and mountain climbing gullies and ridges ...a day hunting in NZ and you are knacked and you know that you have hunted!!!
Remember their eyes and ears are the lesser of their senses until they make the confirmation through their noses then they out of there! ..In New Zealand not everywhere that is hunted, is in bush ..we stalk in the open tussocks and open bush! ..Stealth is the key and that only comes with practice ..can't expect to walk like a ninja when you have city legs!!
Ok fair call ..so what you are saying is your not up to the challenge of trying to stalk at least one on the ground! ..With all the scent killer products and camo they got these days your chances are much better than back in the days when indians where stalking them and I'm positive they didn't have tree stands back then. Would one kill on a stalk hunt be more rewarding than 20 sit on your butt tree stand (and I won't call it hunting) because you are waiting for them to come to you.

I'm a kiwi boy from New Zealand (Aotearoa - Land of the long white cloud) nice shooting but where is the real hunting not sitting on your arse or standing in a tree kinda hunting I'm referring to stalk hunting like we do in good ole little NZ. That hunting is a joke and ain't hunting, pure lazy if you ask me!! ..Most of you Canadians and Americans should come to NZ for a hunt and we will show you hunting how is meant to be done KIWI STYLE ...KIA KAHA
like to see you come over and try stalking a whitetail - eyes, smell and hearing the best not to mention not tons of brush like there in the outback. not saying it is impossible, but VERY VERY difficult. in those woods in this video, you would be busted as soon as you moved. Out west spot and stalk is a good way to hunt, but not for these whitetails.
man up! its illegal to hunt in alabama with a bow that has more than 80% let off.
As for the tissue and tears comment you made, if its that critical, join the rest of the crossbow crowd and don't try to reap the glory from the challenge of a bow when you can easily "hold it all day"
thanks for the Alabama info and I just read that it is 90% not 80%. I know of 2 other states (western) that don't allow over 80%. I hunted Colorado this year and had to reduce my 2 bows to 80% let off. Concept bows can easily be set at 80% or 99% let off just by rotating the bottom axle.
still a bow - i can't just hand it to you to shoot 60 yards like a scoped crossbow. you must practice with it to become good.
crossbow or not, its still a challenge just getting out there, doing your homework, and have a deer come 20 to 40 yards for shot, much harder than shotgun or rifle.
@Hoytdownsouth its not about holding your bow back all day! i wish i could hold my bow back all day! they make it easier to hold back for hunters that have back problems or for younger hunters that can hold a bow back very long! plus its still archery the shooter is the one that makes it easier for them to make a easy shot, if u practice alot.

99%? too much like a crossbow or a draw loc at that point. not much penetration either. People just need to get in shape and practice often. I shoot an 80lb hoyt turbo tec and I shot a deer in pa in 0 degree weather after sitting five hours with no problem. I also hunt hogs in fl alot and always get pass throughs. You don't need that much poundage but my point is man up and get a normal bow with normal let-off.
I'll hand you a tissue for your tears when you have to let down because you couldn't hold it long enough for that big buck to take another step into your shooting lane.
Hope you never have a shoulder problem or any other physical disability either.
I won't because I am a personal trainer and I am just finishing college for physical therapy. I know how to exercise and i know how to fix injuries. BTW I will hold my 80lbs back longer than you can hold 40 I promise.
to ds650cool, most youth and woman's bows draw about 50lbs. In fact it's what I shoot do to my short draw length. In Wisconsin they only require a minimum 35lbs. I think people put too much emphasis on big poundage when it should be more about comfort and the way a bow fits you.
Dot Grantham, a Concept Staff Shooter, cleanly harvested two Canadian black bears over 300lb with a 35# Mini29. One was a complete pass through. So yes a 55# bow would easily kill a deer. Shot placement is key.
To be honest, I am not sure what arrow he used. We have found that you do need to use a fairly heavily spined arrow not because of the let off, but because of the aggressive cam. The aggressive cam helps us to achieve over 300 fps on all of our models.
I know the fad today is to "maah" to stop the deer. But you put them on alert when you do that and they jump your shot a lot of the time. If they are moving that slow go ahead and shoot. Its the more accurate way to shoot.
that buck is a dink.. he was just a little guy

just wondering; why would a 99% Let-off bow be good, I mean is it not brutally hard to draw and shoot?
...great shot btw
