Dangerous toys?

[easy-lift guy]

Back then we used the horse drawn cart as the primary means of transport, we have improved on that as well

 

I guess it is all relative. Here in the US we have 3.64 million bow hunters, of course most them I am sure hunt on foot,only because the horse drawn cart

is a little impractical as well as noisy:sneaky2:.

I have one of these on order, long wait mind you, Pacific Yew carriage longbow, comes in two, 50lb draw at 28inch:001_cool:

 

 

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...

 

rubbish, you should talk to people who use long bows! take a man off his feet at 150 yards!

 

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

 

Deer are notorious for their capacity to run off with their hind quarter blown off with High powered rifles, a single arrow through the chest will drop one faster.

 

idiots who take dirty shots will leave an animal suffering gun or bow makes no difference.

 

sport hunting is something I find hard to agree with even though i fish catch and release, food is another matter.

 

One must have a clean shot, and respect for the animal.

Yeah, spent a lot of time hunting down the right man for the job, this bow is a work of art:001_cool: was thinking about the silver nocks but adding a lot to the price! so cool though!

 

 

me and my father are going to take it up together as were not fishing so much these days, too much gear to carry, going to join a local club, im buying dad one of these but in Purple heart and lemonwood.
