Bow Shooting in the Hawkes Bay
On July 26th 2013 I went on a trip with some shooters and bow hunters from Thames valley deer stalkers club to a station in the Hawkes Bay. Early Saturday morning after breakfast we had to meet at the woolshed for a briefing and designated areas to shoot.The guys from the station took us up to our area,they showed us where a mob of goats were and left us to it. The first mob we snuck up on spooked and ran away. We sidled around the ridges and came upon another mob of goats. Dennis was leading ,and snuck up on the ridge line and peered over and spotted two goats feeding. He waved me up so I could have a go at shooting my first goat with my bow. I knocked up my arrow,and drew my bow back to full draw and aimed just behind the front leg and fired !
I was so wrapt I had shot my first goat.....Yes!
Dennis and my dad ,mark were so proud of me. What an awesome trip that was.
