I dunno if these are eligible because they're not really bowhunting related (cause I don't do it :P) but I think they're good pics so I'll post them anyway.
First one is my mum's pet goats and dog (I'd get disowned if I ever hurt the goats :P)

Now just a couple of pictures of sunset at Henley Beach down here:

These next two are from a recent trip (Sometime in April I believe) that my family took to Los Angeles; my sister lives there now, and we took a detour up north to Yosemite national park, which is either near or on the border of Nevada.
This is me being caught in a freak snowstorm driving up a mountain into the deeper part of the park which lasted all of 15 minutes:

This ones probably my favourite, doesn't work well with a small pic, but basically it's a Sequoia, a Giant Redwood. They can grow up to 270 feet tall, and really really wide. This ones called 'Grizzly Giant' and is absolutely massive, you can tell by how small the people closer to it look:

Bahah you're not wrong. What's worse is I think I nearly hit one once; normally they're in a paddock behind where I stand to shoot so unless I somehow shot while doing a backflip I'd ever hit one, but there's another paddock behind my target that the very edge corner falls into. One time I had my target a bit further towards that end than usual, and one of my shots sort of veered a bit.
The goats were in that paddock (to keep the grass down every now and then) and when I went to find my arrow it was right behind the legs of one - I don't know if he had moved over to it afterwards but I was sweating for a minute :shock:

Hah, you could outfit a medieval army from one of those.
They had a couple that had fallen down over the path which they'd cut a path through, and apart from the ones which had splintered into pieces when they fell (which were why they never got logged), some of them had a very nice looking dark growth with a lot of latewood (I'm pretty sure this is best) in their growth. The park is so large and most people don't make it to the far edges, so you could no doubt nick a smaller log or two, or probably even chip a bit of a BIGGG log and noone would notice.
All depends on your ethics really :twisted:
edit:
Just in case anyone heads up to the US, I'd say Yosemite is definitely one of the places you need to see in the world. The trees are only one small part of the park, we only spent a day there total so not long, but it's so unreal I can hardly believe it now. Thank god for photo evidence :P

Mother & Daughter Pat. Typical of young Angie, drink in 1 hand and food in the other. And yes mate we are on the right side of the fence. lol. Jo says thanks Adam.
No worries, yeah mother and daughter thats a rare sight.
Adam

Adoreable pic jo.
And Johnno, that pic is a winenr for sure. terrific mate. Thats something you would see in a calender. Very professional.

Sorry guys I didn't know if you had a son or daughter I just went by what Pat had posted. Hope I didn't offend you in anyway.
Glad to see your daughter is into it as much as mum and dad. But I guess she doesn't have much of a choice does she ;)
I just hope that my daughter shows the same eagerness one day soon.

First hare with the bow. They're not big on the carbon arrow and outback supreme diet.

Warnie, that photo with the Hereford cattle is an absolute stunner. The light is truely Australian....
I managed a snap of the sunrise whilst on my morning goat hunt,

Some of the photos I took while hunting the New England area last week end.
Come across one young Mt. boar in the snow and managed to get into 12m from him. Shot looked OK , a touch on the high side. After over 1hr searching I could not locate him in the fern and bracken chocked gullies. I was less than happy, as this was my first shot game that I was unable to locate. Plus the fact that I wanted a photo of a Mt. Boar in the snow. Something that does not happen in Australia al that often.
Cheers
Sundowner
