Why does /k/ love guns, but rarely ever talk about bows? They're cheaper in the long run to shoot desu, and you can shoot in your surburbian backyard even
Bow thread

i can shoot normal guns in my backyard. although normally the guy down the street starts shooting his guns too and trying to one up me by shooting louder guns than me and then it turns into a pissing match and wastes a lot of my ammo

Does the battle start with .22?
I have a basic bitch sage 35lber. It's fun but it's a pain in the ass to get everything set up to choot.
>>34352178
normally yeah. just got some tech sights for my 10/22 in the mail today that i'm gonna try out this afternoon
>>34352192
What do you mean? The only thing I need to do is set up my target and put my trigger on
>>34352119
id go for a recurve over a compound, solely bc i believe compound is cheating and if you cant pull back 40 pounds without the help of pullies, you dont deserve that bulls eye/buck.

>40 lbs
Pretty sure most hunting compounds are 50-70 lbs
I think you're confusing let off with the actual pulling

Careful there, under the same idea you shouldn't be driving to work, but instead walKing
>>34352769
to be fair, someone who does the commute via bike or legging it is probably a bit more healthy than those who drive around
>>34352757
where i am, its 35+ lbs to legally hunt big game and i did mean 50, just mistyped
>>34352847
Oh absolutely, same probably goes for compound vs recurve, Idk how much letoff my craze has, but the initial draw is 40lbs
The letoff is cozy though
I hope there isn't already a Zee floating around /k/ that I haven't heard of. Normally don't namefag but figure it's worth it if I'm posting my own stuff.
Anyway OP is right, if we can have a general dedicated to bench queen ARs, we can have at least one bow thread. Pic related is my 40lb takedown, not very nice but does the job fine. Might get a set of cheap post sights soon.
I would love a nice compound but am too poorfag and wrong handed. I do have a 175lb draw 375fps compound crossbow though

>Compound is cheating but I like guns
I cannot understand this reasoning, as a guy with a 50lb longbow and a 60lb compound and various firearms.

Have a 2015 stinger set to 59.5lbs. Hoping to make my first archery kill this coming fall.
