Check out this lion hunt
I know its not bowhunting but this is a cool video none the less. Thought I would share it.
Make you think twice about going lion hunting.
What an amazing animal.
P.S.- I was kind of rooting for the lion at one point
(only kidding)

Just confirms why I WOULD NEVER HUNT A LION!!!!!!!! I hope those guys were hugging because they realize how lucky they really are, and not because they brought down the king. Man, that is crazy!!!!

It looks like he was only hit by the first shot at range. It seems like all the shots while he was charging missed. I have always said I would hate to have to shoot at a charging animal!!!

I think the guy on the far side of the screen, the one who is kneeling/crouching while the lion charges hits him right at the last moment.
Intense power to watch that lion charge like that. Could you imagine standing there?

RE: Check out this lion hunt
That "profesonal hunter" needs to be fired , and find another line of employment . Thats what they are there for , backup , with a big calber gun that they can shoot well and hit a charging animal . That was inches away from dead hunter .
