Dangerous toys?

Recurve bow for me too

 

I would think you can deal with a fair old draw weight mate!

That was at 50 meters.

Just playing around on the farm, don't take it too seriously at all. Also have a couple of recurve bows and a few flat bows...

Nowhere near as accurate though .

[Stihlben]

The twin cam compound draws at 65 and the single cam bowtech draws at 50

Very nice Stihlben!

Don't know what you mean. Thee, me and Mr Hunter will have to have a bit of practise over your meadow or one of the estate's during the summer.

I'm well up for that mate.

Yes all bow hunting is illegal (including crossbow)

 

Please tell me why, unless it has something to do with being humane or the need to attach a silencer to the bow or H&S is involved?.

I can't remember exactly but it's to do with being humane as in the velocity of an arrow being far less than that of a projectile from a gun...

Used to love archery when I was younger, was even Yorkshire under 16s champion for a couple of years

Think it has a lot to do with the fact that if you hit the animal in the wrong place it can run on and die a painful death where as with a gun, chances are the beast'll still drop
