    I think it is another skill for sure but it is not for me.
    Tracking the animals I have, that have been taken with a bow and seeing the blood loss and hearing their last throws, puts me off. That's just me tho.
    I just prefer the rifle.

    It's not the range - I like you 99% are with 10-30m when shot/shot at - but its hard enough getting a clear shot with a streamlined weapon like a rifle - to use a bow and get it home is another story
    I wouldn't have the strength to pull the bloody bow back anyways.

    Is it true the arrow wobbles as it flies - not sure if wobble the right word

    PS
    @madjon_
    Terrain looks like my open areas with the Gorse - the quality of the heads sure is not same
    Lovely looking head - and still looks like a young animal too
