Born Hunter 17,783 Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 I really like this guy. If you wanna get in the mind of the sort of bowhunt that is about today this is a man worth listening to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jetro 5,349 Posted February 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 in all honesty, could the law be over turned on bow hunting in the british isles. if enough people protested, or would it be just like the hunting ban. atb j Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The issue is that the pro bowhunting community is a minority within the minority of the fieldsports community, LOL. In fact there are probably more anti bowhunting 'fellow' fieldsportsmen than there are pro, never mind the general public. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DanielG 286 Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 some people have to drive for hours in N America and canada to bow hunt, we can bowhunt in france in not much time, so its not all bad, you just have to make the effort to go 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The gun was for self preservation,always have a plan B just in case things go tits up as it appears to have done,that guy missed with his first arrow and it didn't look to be a good hit with the second,archers fault not the equipments but the bear didn't look too happy when it charged them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
