Our native Americans used to start fires to drive game to awaiting watchers or shoot off horse back on the run, I'd be called unethical to do the same thing.

Not saying compound isn't hard everyone....just getting a feel to see who has done it bear bones...

Make a hole in the right spot with flint heads...animal bleeds....just like a 2 blade rage or a 3 blade muzzy.
