Enough for deer?

[Yail Bloor]

Now we have an "is my bow enough to take a Bigfoot?" thread. No description of bow, #pull, arrow type, etc. Just a good common sense concrete penetration test!!

My bow will take down Bigfoot. At 70# I don't need to shoot concrete to be sure either either

Oh NO! We already established that we must not shoot Bigfoot. Not only is he an endangered species but quite often they are just jokers in a gorilla suit.

This forum used to have good hunting stories and info.... Now it's full of idiotic forensic troll threads like this.

Trolls couldn't pull my bow!

What did you punch holes in the board with your girlfriends stilleto heels?, then yes at arms distance a stiletto heel will kill a deer... but slowly and painfully and only if worn by a Russian model named Svetlana...

You're good to go if during the deer season, they wear clapboards to keep off the rain...

Maybe he just wanted to add some fibre to his diet

Any gun is enough gun for deer.

Whether or not it dies however....

My 458 wm leaves similar marks in wood that size. Don't think anyone would argue that it's not enough gun for deer. My 25/06 with interlock would rip about a 3" exit hole in spruce that big. 2 shots to cut thru a 2x4. It reliably kills deer and I've yet to recover a bullet from an animal with it

I am impressed that your arrow stayed in the wall. The 4 times I've seen a Xbow bolt hit a house they bounced off. Left a hell of a mark though.

How 'bout we try and guess what the rifle and cartridge used for the frozen spruce holed wood?

SKS , x39 ???

Nah. OP was obviously looking for a "No waaaaay! Really??" type reaction. So I'm thinking .22lr. Maybe even .22 short or sub?


Although we'll never know now, cuz we've hurt his feeling by not pulling his finger when asked, so he's taken his ball and gone home.

Hahaha! How true. His skin is much thinner than his test board.

Nice to see a consensus amongst members I respect......... no bravado in using "just enough"....... and a complete bs test, my .177 air gun would pass it.....

I shot a toaster once at an old bush landfill with my 1 3/8 oz copper plated #5 lead loads pushing 1365 fps. After watching that old stainless toaster fly about 3 ft then land and roll a further 10' I determined those loads were a bit stiff for grouse. You have to admit SB that was cutting edge ballistics testing?!

I don't want to repeat that 3 more times!! Costly!!

sadly....this ongoing thread reminds me of how many of us are purely bored...

 

[kamlooky]

Yeah but, whom else could come up with this chit?
Surely not a veegan or libbertill.
