So if "no" then people who "lob" arrows at animals, take long shots and shoot at running animals are unethical? Like Fred Bear?

I lump it in "would you shoot a deer at 50 yards" If I've practiced at it and can make the shot, yes. There's no mystery here, if you can do it via practice, who am I to say you shouldn't. If you try it a few times and wound them all, then yes, I'd say you shouldn't be.
