Default RE: How efective is bow on big game hunting?

46 years of Bowhunting biggame. bigger game taken besides Whitetail, mule deer & exotics
Black Bear-never had one go over 30 yards-all Pope & young
Elk-100 yards, Caribou Dropped in tracks, several wild hogs-toughest of anything in my book. I use 60# compound now & Rocky Mountain Broadheads since they came on the market. Your shot placement STILL is the most important factor (my opinion). don't take crazy shots. I do know 3 people who have taken Record class Moose & 2 that took Grizzlies.
It WILL do the job.
