Arrow hunting and shed pics.

duckfvr · Mar 11, 2007

Well we found a few sheds and a lot of arrows. Maybe we should start taking pics of arrows atl.

That's unreal! What is up with all the arrows?

no kidding!!! i would get really lucky if i found an arrow. i already have troubles finding my own. haha

You gotta let us know where that's at without giving us too much info so we never hunt there. That place is loaded with archery hunters (or flingers). Good finds though.

Thats pretty rediculous!! Hiked an area in Idaho that was very similar to the amount of arrows you found, they were all over the place. Found like 15 in one hundred yard stretch.

How many of those arrows match with eachother. That is crazy to find 19 arrows. Must be some lazy archers. And thats got to be Utah, land of the Tard.

Wow. That's nuts! The only part on arrows I find out hunting are made of rock!

Desertflinger,
how about posting some pics of "rock" arrow heads, I love those!

WAmuleyHunter · Mar 12, 2007

got to love it huh Duck?? should send that pic and all the arrows to the gameys taht you find this spring. When we were hunting, talked to a guy that hikes in and counts deer for winter surveys. He said soon as the snow melts on the big ridge just north from where that one pic is taken he finds 30 plus arrows in the one big bowl.

HAHA I think i know where that is...
thats a lot of arrows

Gator · Mar 13, 2007

Man that's alot of arrows I wonder if you will find that many next year.

Funny thing is, those are all Duck's arrows from the last couple years. Can't be too hard on him though. Those does he was shooting at were pushing 30 yds away!

It's amazing that WDFW hasn't required archers to pass some sort of bow hunters education class. I think most other western states require it. There are a lot of idiots out there. Last November I saw some kid leaning across the hood of his truck watching a big buck across the draw through his rifle scope! When I asked him why he had a rifle with him during an archery season he said "for coyotes" and claimed he didn't know it was illegal to do so.

The only arrow i have ever found was after i shot my first grouse. I walked up to the dead bird and noticed an arrow that wasn't mine about 4 feet away from the bird and burried into the ground about a foot.

ya last year i missed the doe and hit the buck behind her on 8th arrow,now thats lucky. That is why i carry a 10 arrow quiver so i can launch them all and go find them during shed season

OMFG!!!!! The arrows are beyond pathetic what the hell happens in that area. Decent sheds but the arrows I can even begin to understand. WTF? Fill us in how that happens.

Bearhunter · Mar 19, 2007

How that happens is you get a lot of guys that pull there bows out 2 weeks before the season opens, sets there bows up shoot a couple times and call it good. Man that is Pathetic and if gives us archers a bad rep to. Misses happen but that seems real bad to find that many in one day?

Lowedog · Mar 19, 2007

That happens when you have too easy of access to the area and the hunters concentrated into a small unit. Most guys hunt that area by driving around and spotting deer from the road and jumping out and taking pot shots. Poor ethics and poor management IMO.
