Keeping them from kicking our asses for talking about it like they aren't going to kick our asses for talking about it is the hard part.

I'm sure you've got it, but I'm not really an expert.
I don't like the idea of using a bow as a hunting weapon. It's not very good for it. I mean, it has a far less hit-to-kill ratio to kill a deer, and what's the point? Showing how accurate you are with a bow?
The point of hunting has more to do with positioning and stealth... that's the sport of it. The kill shot is just the aftermath of all that out-thinking and maneuvering. I think it would be wiser to use a rifle, something that's far more accurate and likely to kill, for that kill shot. But that's just IMO.
