The firearm thread

[Brian d marge]

I have a question: why does everyone , or every bow hunting video I see from NZ use a compound, where's the skill in that ... Sit there and hold it all day with Ur lasers and sharks , and sharks with lasers ...... Where's the recurve or longbow fellas

Google Toa Hunter Gatherer.

As for it being not skillful pfffft whatever.

And you're possibly in the wrong thread for bows if looking for like minded chaps.
I'm sure there's a few though but probably more like me who aren't against it but also don't care about it.

A) Air rifle, crack shot. Pigeons are pretty big, mostly static targets at just 15m. Even a .22 hollow-point would largely disintegrate provided you don't miss.

B) Poison, nets, spikes, fake hawks

C) Real hawks, starved

D) Cherry picker (shoot the wall not the roof)

There may be interest in bows that we just don't see.

Former colleague of mine has a daughter who just turned six. A few months back I was told the wee one had been given a bow by her dad. I imagined a little pink thing with maybe some optional sparkles. But no, it's a small black bow that apart from the colour wouldn't look too out of place in a Robin Hood movie, 20lb pull, and she has some carbon arrows with what might be aluminium tips. It's not exactly a toy.

Archery used to be strong in town here but I have no idea if the club still operates. I did see them shooting one day and was very unimpressed by their idea of safety.
