Personally I don't like killing animals that I don't eat. I have no problem with any one who does though. I also don't think that its any great thing to shoot an animal with a bow and then have a barrage of bullets come flying in to "finish it off". If that is what it takes then, in my opinion, why not just use a rifle? And I'd bet that someone killed an elephant with a bow before Howard Hill. Probably some pigmy or some native african that had killed it for food. Just my .02
