Thanks David!

Thanks for Subscribing!

What did you end up getting

Sounded Completely douchey

This lol, he lost me at clicker. "tRaD"

See my videos. That was with a 40 at 22 yards. 50+

Shooting the fish heading upstream, or the shooting the ones who catch them? :-)

If you haven't bought a bow yet,. I recommend you start with a recurve and stay traditional. It's so simple and you can learn how to build some cedar arrows with your boys. If you like simplicity and like to save money, go the traditional route. It'll make you a great hunter and the recurve is a very capable weapon with a sharp fixed blade broadhead. I personally like instinctive shooting the most as I feel like I can hunt a little longer at night. As long as i can still see the deer. As with a compound , you need to make sure you can still see your sight pin. Also if something comes in on you fast, I feel like it's quicker to engage with a recurve opposed to lining up the peep hole and finding your pin with a compound. Just getting a new string strung up on your new set of training wheels can cost upwards of $75. For $75, in the traditional archery world,. You can buy a lot. You can find an old Herters, Shakespeare, or Bear recurve at a rubbage sale for so cheap. Just make sure the limbs are straight, order a new string for $10. Maybe put a new arrow rest I it and boom you have a working bow that needs to be tuned. A compound can cost over a grand these days. And people are constantly upgrading... My 1962 Bear Kodiak is timeless. It's just beautiful man,. And shes a silent killer to anything within 20 yards. As long as theres not a twig in the way! Happy hunting 🤟

You should be fine starting at 45lbs. It might be a good idea to start a little lower, but 45lbs will work for you.

I'm 53 and 5' 7". Medium build. I have no problem with 50 lbs in my traditional and self bows. Been bow hunting since I was 14. Once you shoot a few months with good form, you will learn to use your back muscles to hold that draw back and lock in with your shoulder blade muscles. Once you get it right, you'll know. Good luck.

He tried, but couldn't get it done last year....maybe he will this year!

If you've never shot a bow before, 30-40 pounds would be good for a beginner.

Hunt with the wind in your face. Then scent doesnt matter.

There's definitely more basic ways to get started, but Josh wants to make sure his form is correct first.

We can't do anything right...

"Linguists have thought for many years the length of words is related to the frequency of use, with short words used more often than long ones. Now researchers in the US have shown the length is more closely related to the amount of information the words carry than their frequency of use. A link between the length of words and how frequently they are used was first proposed in 1935 by George Kingsley Zipf, a Harvard University linguist and philologist. Zipf's idea was that people would tend to shorten words they used often, to save time in writing and speaking. The relationship seems intuitive and it seems to apply to many languages with short words such as “the”, “a”, “to”, “and”, “so” (and equivalents in other languages) being frequently used. Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), led by Steven Piantadosi, tested the Zipf relationship by analysing word use in 11 European languages. They analyzed digitized texts for correlations between words by counting how often all pairs of words occurred in sequence. This information was then used to estimate the probability of words occurring after given previous words or sequences of words. They made the assumption that the more predictable a word is, the less information it conveys, and estimated the information content from information theory, which says the information content is proportional to the negative logarithm of the probability of a word occurring. Piantadosi said if the word length is directly related to information content this would make the transmission of information through language more efficient and also make speech and written texts easier to understand. This is because shorter words, carrying less information, would be scattered through the speech, essentially “smoothing out” the information density and delivering the important information at a steady rate. The studies suggest that the short words are in fact the least informative and most predictable words rather than the most often used, and that word length is more closely related to the information the words contain. The paper is soon to be published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).

Funny. You’re worried about abbreviating words when you can’t use proper grammar. You should have asked, why “do”, not “does”. Also it should be my two “cents” not “since”. Try educating yourself before you publicly criticize others.
