I stumbled across this video of a guy hunting brown bears on Kodiak Island.
http://www.outdoorhub.com/news/2014/11/26/video-kodiak-bear-charges-bowhunter-arrow-hits/
The hunter looked like he had two pretty decent shots on the bear, but the guide had to finish him off.
This had to be the rush of a lifetime.
The question is at what point is an animal too big for modern bow technology?
Or is the guy just using too small of archery equipment?
I have heard stories of men trying to take elephants with a bow and having the same results.
I get the challenge of bow hunting, but things like these just make me uneasy.
I was just curious at what point does bowhunting reach its limits.
Next year, I plan on picking up a bow to get a longer season in Wyoming.
So, be gentle at my ignorance.
