RE: WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU WOULD HAVE DONE
1. Knife sheath unclipped
2. Bow pulled back
If I had ANY dog within 10 yrds. of me that LOOK'S like a threat to me it would have been shot. I dont really care if its not right, the dog shouldnt have been out running around in the first place.
Last year i was going to hunt over my uncles feeder. It was about 80yrds. away with a small shed about 20yrds. away from it. My cousin went out to help me set up because i was going to hunt off of the sheds roof. He was handing me my pack and a big mutt ran down the hill barking at us, and on instinct i pulled my bow back. It would not have bothered me a bit to shoot it. It would have had ahold of my little cousin and he couldnt have did much to get it off.
It is just my opinion just like all of you have your own. I would have shot.
