Your challenging yourself in the shooting part of it, not the hunting part.
Same thing with a home made long bow and arrows right?
I seriously question how many deer are wounded and lost by shooters taking such long shots,
I seriously question the number of deer wounded by guys shooting long ranges with a bow look at all of the things that could go wrong, I guess no one should shoot over 30 yards with a bow or maybe it should be 20 yards.
Something tells me that Ridge Runner has been completely dedicated to his type of hunting longer then the origianal poster has been walking the earth.
and there is a big difference in being able to shoot a deer at 60 yards with a bow, and shooting one at 1000 with a rifle.
Let's look at the simalarities.
[ol][*]Wind, you better know how to shoot with both to make this happen.[*]Aniamal moving, I wonder how much longer the time of impact is on a bullet and arrow at 60 and 1000 yards.[*]Paractice both require alot of practice and there are people like yourself that will tell you to keep the 60 yards shot on the range with a bow becasue too much can go wrong.[*]Hunters abilty.[/ol]
