Author Topic: Introductions, getting started Stiknstringbow Knows what it's all about Member # 3571 posted February 11, 2010 10:28 AM                   I am a new member and wish to introduce myself. I go by the handle Stiknstringbow on all the forums because I have been archery only for 22 years and Traditional for the last 6. I have no predator hunting experience other than chance encounters while Elk, Deer, and Turkey hunting. I am interested in learning calling techniques in order to harvest a bear, and possibly any other predator that I can..... I cannot afford an electronic call, but like hand calls, except that I have so many that I cannot seem to figure out how to carry them all. (Elk,deer,turkey,and predator calls + grunt tube and Diaphragms. I live near Chehalis,Washington, with my wife, 3 kids, 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 10 chickens. I have 5 acres with my own 3D course on it to practice with my bows. I have killed a couple 'yotes while Turkey hunting, but wish to actually do it on purpose some time, although bear, cougar, and bobcat are what I really wish to harvest. I look forward to learning from the other members on this site, and (hopefully) sharing some success stories. -------------------- The mountains are calling and I must go." - John Muir "I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order." - John Burroughs Posts: 35 | From: Chehalis | Registered: Feb 2010  |  IP: Logged Leonard HMFIC Member # 2 posted February 11, 2010 10:42 AM                       So, where the heck is Chehalis?

We are 1/2 way between Portland and Seattle. I moved down here to get out of town, it is great to be able to get off the freeway, go into stores etc.. without all the "spare Changers" and pan-handlers. And nobody pays any attention when I walk into a store wearing camo.... -------------------- The mountains are calling and I must go." - John Muir "I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order." - John Burroughs Posts: 35 | From: Chehalis | Registered: Feb 2010  |  IP: Logged Locohead World Famous Smoke Dancer Member # 15 posted February 11, 2010 01:44 PM                    Hello Behle!!!...? -------------------- I love my critters and chick!!!! :) Posts: 2219 | From: CO | Registered: Jan 2003  |  IP: Logged Kokopelli SENIOR DISCOUNT & Dispenser of Sage Advice Member # 633 posted February 11, 2010 02:02 PM                      StiknstringDude; Do you by any chance belong to Capital City Bowmen?????? -------------------- And lo, the Light of the Trump shown upon the Darkness and the Darkness could not comprehend it.

I used to live in Aberdene, Wa about 1974. I was thinning trees for the timber companies. We were out there with the rain and snow freezing our butts off but what a great time we had. The razor clam digging was great at Ocean Shores. Some of the mountains we climbed to thin trees were extremely steep. Gasoline was about .45 cents per gallon then and when it hit .52 cents I about scat myself LOL. Oh and by the way it's Coyote not Yote.

One more time and Andy might be needed! If it isn't a genuine post, I think it might be Krusty. But what the heck do I know, my pro staff status was taken away. Thank goodness, It was just too much stress for me.

LOL The area, it's a large agricultural region. P.S. Nobody is after your friend. Everybody is just having a little light hearted fun lately. No harm intended.

As I stated before, I am new to the predator thing so I dont know the rules. I hunt with recurves, so I wont be much competition, but hope to call in a bear this spring (if Drawn), and maybe kill another COYOTE or two while turkey hunting. I see bears, cougars, and bobcats sometimes while out and about, and hope to be able to slow them down or make them come closer in hopes of getting a shot. I also really appreciate the quality of some of those calls that I have seen, and hope to acquire a few nice ones for my collection. -------------------- The mountains are calling and I must go." - John Muir "I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order." - John Burroughs Posts: 35 | From: Chehalis | Registered: Feb 2010  |  IP: Logged Lone Howl Free Trial Platinum Member & part-time language police Member # 29 posted February 12, 2010 11:24 AM                    Hi Stik, I hunt with a recurve as well, I take a couple coyotes every year with it just for fun. Im in a coyote rich area though and have to call in like 20 of em just to get a good shot at one. Oh yeah, Welcome sir. Mark. -------------------- When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

And I didn't think anyone was "after" Stik, I just didn't think it fair to connect he and I together, as one, or a pair. No reason he should have to live with my reputation (online, or in the woods). But, dude does do everything the hard way, from his recurve bow, to beating himeslf to death trying to find and kill the eastern wild turkey, with it, here in western Washington (which makes hunting coyotes here look easy)... So he's a glutton for punishment, and should have no problem taking the fun poked his way. Stik, I hope to get my shop up and running again, soon, maybe we can get you a nice call. That part of my reputation is considered by many, worth getting attached to.
