Hunting a bear with a bow and arrow? The guy had it coming. Bowhunting an animal that big is just plain cruel. Now, I'm all for bowhunting vs. guns, but only for smaller prey like rabbits and squirrels - things that die quick and with minimal pain and are more challenging to hit.

No offence gofaster but you dont know what your talking about.
Ive never hunted bear with a bow, but have been bowhunting deer for many years. I usually fill my tag every year and have not once wounded one.

If you think a deer "or bear" isnt challenging to hit then you are clueless on the subject. Ever try to get within 30 yards of a wild animal and not be detected? I would gess not.
That being said, these so called hunters got what was comming, anyone who would arrow a bear "or anything else" on the run is a retard.

hehehe.:D
Have to agree with ya about paragraph 4, Redtail.
"He wants it to be known that it was not the bear's fault"
Rofl- shoot a bear twice up the arse what else would you expect it to do.

Sometimes you don't have to do anything to them.
Ten years ago, on a trip to Alaska, my family and I stopped at a Canadian national park that featured a hot spring with bathing pools and a camping area. Signs warned of bears in the area being attracted to food in the camp sites. We saw one cross the road just before we got there.
No problem while we were there, but it was summer time and there were quite a few people, so the bears probably came in only at night.
A few years later, late in the fall, a black bear attacked a young boy at that park. His mother ran to his rescue, and the bear attacked her, inflicting fatal wounds. Another camper, a man, responding to her cries for help, tried to drive the bear off, and he was killed also.
The young boy survived. No cause for the attack was ever determined.

I totally agree. The first deer I got with a bow I shot deer at 40 yards. He didn't even flinch when the arrow when through him. He just stood there, looked around for about 20 seconds and dropped over. Hit them right, and its just a clean as shooting them in the head with a gun...

no doubt about trying to sneak up on a wild animal.. espeically one like a deer that's skittish as hell 24/7.
well.. during hunting season at least.
One can just about walk up to a deer around here during off season.. bastiges

A friend of mines aunt goes bear hunting with a bow. Heart shots every time. No less humane then a rifle.
-
it isn't fair to shoot Koala bears....
-
Hell, the Native Americans were killing bison w/ bows and arrows...no less kill-skill there I'm sure.
I'm no hunter so I'm clueless to how to kill what with what, but I imagine theres a protocol to not shooting moving animals :confused:
IMO, they got what was comin to them. I have a friend who's a paramedic/ wilderness expert, and he recalled stories (yes, more than one)of city slickers smearing honey on their faces so the bear would walk towards the car and "lick" them.
...note: He arrived after-the fact...

I could never shoot an animal that I would not eat myself. That basically leaves chickens, cows, fish, seafood etc... which arent fun to hunt.
I dont touch pork.

I understand that bowfishing (yes, it's real -- shooting fish with a bow, a line attached to the arrow so you can reel it in) requires a fair amount of skill.

Typically carp are the prefered fish for bowhunting as they don't move a whole lot in the water. Lazy I guess. I've tried it, I sucked, so I quit :D
