Bad Hunting


Recommended Posts

Hunting Video, To watch this video cick on the link and then click on the picture in the middle of the screen of the guy holding the bow. This kind of hunting is cruel because it is quite clear that the bow does not kill cleanly, if fact in the video you get a look at the guys arrow, these arrows are designed to kill through blood loss and damage to organs, these arrows dont have a lot of energy compared to the conventional rife, so if you hit a animal out of range the chances your arrow wont go in far enough and kill the animal cleanly :angry::oops::lol::good:

 

Found this video whilst having a look through www.huntingfootage.com there are some really great videos of Turkey hunting on this website.

 

Here is a Turkey hunting Video

Personally i don't see a prob with Bow Hunting.

 

I enjoyed watching a Turkey hunt using Guilotine arrows and thought it was fantastic how accurate they were.

 

Of course seeing the head flying off was a tad unexpected at first but it was cool to watch just how good these guys get at Camo and Decoying.

 

Fieldcraft to the extreme :angry:

It should be banned because I don't agree with it!

 

the above is a pointless statement is it not???

 

 

 

it died in a very short time imo

 

if you all think your shooting kills quicker think again as we all know the truth

 

the animal YOU SHOOT DIES end of story they all suffer get over it

Video wont open for me: its a problem with WMP.

 

The opinion of people in the past has been "I don't agree with it so it should be banned" I would remind you it is that opinion that will ultimately lead to the banning of shooting sports and gun ownership in the UK. Pointless statement? To get the mind working is why I posted it.

There are several reasons that as responsible bow shooters we practise until we can place the arrows on top of each other consistantly. Nice clean kills out of respect for the animal, and not having to track wounded game with the chance of loosing it, are but two of the main ones. How ever one of our greatest motivators, and this stands out before all others.......alot of the animals that we hunt with bow ...... HUNT YOU BACK :good::oops:

 

Its bad enough when they are not pi$$ed off :angry: last thing you want is to make them angry and vandictive :lol:

no offence intended but that was not a clean kill,the bear ran around and tried to climb a tree to get away from something it couldnt perceive or attack.the laughter at the response to the bears antics after it was hit ? not what you expect from a hunter with respect for his quarry.

Just watched the video, IMHO that was a pretty clean kill with a well-placed shot from the hunter. Because we do not hunt animals as large as bears in this country, we can get blinded to the fact that not all shots drop animals where they are shot, whether it by rifle or bow.

Is there not one person on here that has shot a rabbit, only for it to disappear down a warren wounded? Or hit a pheasant on a drive only for it to become a runner and be lost? Or stalk a deer and hit it with a well-placed shot only to have it run off 200mtrs into thick woodland and drop? It happens, no one can guarantee a clean kill every time.

The elation that the bowman showed at the end of the clip is due in no small part to adrenalin. The day I shot my first goose I drove home muttering to myself "I have done it I have had my first goose" With a grin from ear to ear if you did not feel that elation you would not be normal. It does not mean that you have disrespect for your quarry.

I personally wouldn't hunt with a bow..............but I'd go to almost any lengths to protect someone elses right to (not in the UK obviously), just as much as I'm sure that the users of this forum will help to protect my right to hunt with shotgun, air rifle and fullbore rifle.

 

PS. As for power.....I don't know the exact figures but a clothyard arrow shot from a longbow will pierce steel armour at 100yds I think that would be plenty.

I don't bow hunt and probably wouldn't given the opportunity BUT I'm sure if I asked the Frenchies at Agincourt what they thought about bows and arrows in the right hands they'd say; 'damn deadly old chap' :yp:

 

If they (the French) captured an English longbow man they'd chop off the first and second fingers of his draw hand which is why we have today the good old English insult of the 2 fingered salute. Just thought I'd share that little bit of history with you.

i think all you bampots SHOULDNT have a gun as you might one day have the

possibilty of you shooting an animal and not making a clean kill of it

so i say ban you stupid burgers that think his actions were wrong

if you have shot for a bit you will know it dont always go to plan

think about it **** you make my blood boil :yp: ???

 

ways in the country side are harsh sumtimes learn it or stay away on a target range
