Rabbit and Squirrel Question??

[FishingGuy23]

Would my 20- 25 Pound bow kill a rabbit or a squirrel???

if you hit the animals fatally then yes, it would kill it.

[Bocajnala]

yes

That's more than enough, my grandkids target shoot with bows of that poundage and even their blunt headed little twigs sink into the foam of my 3-D fairly deeply. Bunnies aren't very sturdy, and squirrels won't run far when they're pinned to the ground.

Yeah, have fun!

I dont think that you could ever kill a squirrel with that. If you did it would run away with your arrow. Rabbit ..YES.. i have killed plenty with a junky pellet gun. They are easy to kill. Have fun hitting them with a bow though..I have gotten yard bunnys with my bow, never while actually hunting for them though.

I saw a Roger Raglin show where they were hunting rabbits,jump shooting them with light poundage recurves,they killed several that day,I was amazed shooting a rabbit isn't that hard if you are close and they are sitting still,but running?I have killed a squirrel with my little bear recurve that was about 30 years ago,it was a twentyfive pound pull,just remember shock kills small animals better than penetration,and blunt points will be a lot easier to retreive than a sharp one that sticks in dead logs or other stuff.KNOCK THE FUR OFF THEM AND HAVE FUN!!

You've gotta be carefull with those squirrels,they've been known to charge.

Easily, use a judo tip so you don't do as much damage to the meat.
