bow hunting

[jazmin 45]

does anyone on the site hunt ie the usa or other i have always viewed it to be, well a abit grim.But i have been watching some good sites and some of these guys are really good at clean kills maybe someone here who does the real deal can do a write up on the way they hunt and the best way to go about it.Maybe a topic for the over sea guys to put there bit in.

yes its a real shame it cant happen here , concidering english longbow men were reviered across europe through the centurys..

Not allowed to do it here in Ireland either. If we were I'd be out with a bow in a heartbeat I've seen a few arrow heads in the flesh, they would do serious serious damage to what they hit. The odd time I've fluffed a shot with the rifle on a fox we've always been able to blood trail him.

im glad its banned here you would only end up getting idiots lamping carp lakes.

i can understand it in america where carp are a pest species but over here they arent and are very expensive for lakes to purchase.

Bowhunting is an amazing sport, though it is illegal in the uk.It's amazing to think an elephant can be dropped with a single arrow.

Many years ago i was in Sri Lanka and was fortunate enough to be taken out by a few locals,i witnessed an elephant hit with a 30 inch arrow of which not one part of the arrow was visible above the skin !!...Very impressive to see.
