RE: .410 shotgun bow lol

RE: .410 shotgun bow lol
 

Believe it or not....people do that. About 15yrs ago on our farm in WV...some guys got busted by the warden for doing exactly that.

I thought it was only a WV thing... LOL ;)

Technically then it wouldn't be bow hunting, but cross bow hunting without strings lol I would say he is yanking your chain. I cant believe anyone would even try that. Stupid people shouldn't be allowed to breed

RE: .410 shotgun bow lol
 

That would be a good one. Why would you do this, just use a slug.

RE: .410 shotgun bow lol
 

it would work... for fun while in the military we'd pull the blank adapters off our guns and shove the cleaning rod in there and fire it, it would drive those little rods 4-5" into a tree... the m16 blanks were awfully quiet too, very little powder in them... the m60 blanks however would drive those rod into the trees and you couldn't see but about an inch sticking out..

We have done it, but you have to use the big wooden shafts. Take the fletching off, boy do those wood arrows penatrate into a old wood shed!

I have heard this a popular hillbilly method down in West Virginia.
