Where to source materials etc. Also the place to show off your new bow or quiver etc.... Making things belongs in Traditional Crafts.

Horsebow hunting

#1 Post by Running Bear Eagle Eye » Thu Aug 10, 2006 1:57 pm

G'day
Im thinking about buying a horsebow around 75pds im just wondering if any of you have got one and gone hunting with it.
Could you plz tell me how it performed and whether or not they have enough power and penetration to humanley kill a large deer sized target
Thanks

Hi RBEE,
The bow will be fine, training the horse will be the problem.
