How everyone! Wunda people around here must not know how to use bow an arrow either thank goodness I’ve never seen a wild animal walking around with an arrow sticking through them but hear of it happening. We had 2 dead deer down below us from being shot and made it almost to the river.Didn’t even know they were there till one of our dogs came to me carrying a leg bone then we found them.
Hunting with a bow is a whole different skill set than with a gun.
Depending on shot placement, the type of arrow used and strength of the bow, the arrow may or may not pass through an animal.
I like the arrow to stick out of the animal, my hunting partner prefers it passes through. Arrows kill by cutting like a scalpel. The animal bleeds to death.
The skill is then tracking the animal until it dies. Which can be in minutes or never, just like with a bullet. I don’t know if you have ever seen a boardhead but they are razor sharp. If you cut yourself with one you won’t even feel the cut, just see the blood. I know because when young and dumb I cut myself with one.
I know it can seem cruel, but any method of killing our food can.
But we can take solace in knowing guys like me spent a ton of money to not shoot a deer and that money goes to habitat and increasing other wildlife populations..
and finally!! Deer are cruel animals which will go to any length to one up man. (This man in particular).
Sunday night the WW and I were watching TV and about 10 pm we heard a crash. We looked out the window to see a car backing up. Turned into our drive and left. A buck decided to flip me off, by committing suicide by jumping in front of a car and dying in my driveway, instead of offering himself up to me Sunday.
Good evening Wunda & Kiwi
