Title: Haida Gwaii buck
Post by: Blayne on November 17, 2015, 11:24:11 am: I made it to the misty isles of Haida Gwaii to hunt with a fellow I met through Trad Gang. After 9 days of hard hunting, I was finally able to cut a tag. My yew self bow "Naka" took her second deer, this time with a Sitka Spruce shaft, and a Snuffer broadhead. Shot wasn't the best, but effective. It has been a great trip up here!

Would have had a tough time going further than I did, it is heavy and awkward, even a small deer like a Sitka. I remember seeing pictures of my grandpa doing this similar style in the 50's and 60's, I thought it really neat to follow in his steps:)
