What the fuck are you talking about. lol

As a bow hunter, I say you're full of shit. The amount of skill required to place an arrow @ 30 yards with a bow, compared to a gun is exponential. Gun = one hand, multiple shots, easy. Bow = both hands, cumbersome reload, lots and lots of practice in order to be able to perform.

So it is more lethal from further away if you've used one for even just 10 mins?

Thanks for proving my point.

Cumbersome reload?

What, you got no fingers or something?

Spoken like a true archery novice. Bows take a long time to get good with, been there done that. You should try it sometime.

You didn't prove shit, unless you mean how ignorant you are about using a bow.

Takes way longer to pull from a quiver, find the knock, put the arrow on the right way, draw, and take aim, than it does for a gas-operated piston to cock a gun so you can pull the trigger again.Not to mention - how many arrows can a quiver hold? Well, that depends on the quiver and depends on the tips you're using. If you use field tips, you can hold a lot more; maybe 20-30 arrows, with broadheads, quite a few less.

So, to specifically answer your question; yes I have fingers. I also have 10 years of bow hunting experience and 3D target shooting.

What is your proficiency with a bow?

20-30 arrows? Sounds "high capacity" to me.


All quivers with the ability to hold more than 5 arrows should be banned!

You're spouting shit you know nothing about.

You were attempting to make a point about the lethality of guns compared to bows, when your point is moot.

What did you think was going to happen when you post false shit about something? Did you think people who actually know were going to agree with you?

Seen a video of guy that throws a wedding ring 30 feet in the air - knocks an arrow - and fires it straight through the ring before it hits the ground. Looks cool in slow motion. It's intimidating knowing that he can also loose a dozen or so arrows in under 10 secs.

With the right head on the shaft, an arrow is more damaging than a 9 mm hand gun round.

But the rifle round is more lethal than a bow. 300 feet/second vs 2300 feet/second
