I think its cool It would test ones stalking skills to the extreme I would probley not try it cause I only took my longbow out once and I'm only good to 20 yards and wont you know it thats when I see the big 11 pointer at 40 yards watched him for 30 minutes later in the week he fell to my more modern equipment at 18 yards strange how that works isn't it? so Im not a fan of any weapons pre 1800's so Im not sure of the b.c. time weapons either.
