I don’t hunt with them because I’m a veg, but I guess it’s nice to know that I could in the unlikely event that shit completely hit the fan in a way that necessitated that. It also just feels good to do something with my time that actually makes me feel human.
I’m sorry I don’t know what community to post this in. Feel free to correct me accordingly.
You’re following in a lineage of tool craft as old as humanity itself! Hell fucking yeah!
That’s one of my favorite things about archery. Essentially every culture on the planet developed it in parallel with the materials that were available to them, and every iteration of it is awesome and fascinating — no exceptions.
Okay, one exception: modern compound archery. Obviously very effective for hunting, and interesting from an engineering perspective, but it’s not for me. Its explicit goal is to remove the human from the equation as much as possible, and I just don’t find that to be much fun.
I, too, have a judgemental and not entirely reasonable disgust for compound bows.

I hadn't thought of that! That really adds dope points onto this, haha.
