    Came across this video. Wasn't sure if I was going to post it or not. Probably doesn't paint the best picture of bowhunting. But here it is anyway.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EeC9Nvx_yI8

    p.s. I'd like to smack the guy in the head for laughing. If the shot was intentional I'd like to smack him again. If it wasn't intentional I'd still like to smack him.

    ^ Not in regards to you posting NY, but to the asinine hunter who took the shot.

    A. If I made that shot I probably would never get over that terrible feeling completely.
    B. If I made that shot I sure as hell would not be laughing about it.
    C. If I made that shot I sure as hell would not put it on "you tube" for about a million obvious reasons.

    100% agree.

    I probably won't get over the terrible feeling just WATCHING the damn thing. And I had my sound off.

    I shut it off at 1:45. I realize mistakes happen, but there is no need to post it on youtube. What an idiot.

    It's things like this that make me sick. It throws everything I have ever learned about ethical hunting out the window. I cannot possibly understand why someone would even think about taking a shot like that.

    As far as putting it on youtube, tree huggers already bash enough videos on there, and guaranteed if some anti-hunter saw that, it would make it 100 times harder to properly educate them as to why we hunt.

    All it takes is one person....

    Had the sound off so I didn't get to hear the laugh.

    The fact that I didn't hear anyone say the guy freaked out, means he's a d-bag and doesn't need to be smacked. He needs to be sack punched many, many times.

    Solid bone shot, didn't look like the deer was in much pain. It's probably going to live... with an extremely bad headache.

    That reminds me of that video where the black bear takes a head shot at the bait site and the guys are laughing big time about it. Very sad!

    Cram it GARY!!! That looks like somewhere out west, Oklahoma maybe, looking at how flat it is and the terrain. I'd hope......:mad: Plus if it was OHIO, that guy would've been using a CROSSBOW!!!! :(


    I'm assuming the shooter isn't a very experienced hunter, and he's not a very experienced archer either. Most "experienced" hunters wouldn't be shooting at that tiny buck, and most would put a little better shot on that animal, especially at that short of a distance.

    The GOOD thing is that the arrow actually appears to be ABOVE the cranial vault, and that deer may have survived that shot. The BAD is that he probably ran around for a spell with that ANTENNA sticking out of his head. Hopefully, that hunter LEARNS a little from that experience, or STOPS hunting!!!

    Thats disgusting! I think he should be on the other end of that... see how he likes an arrow in his head. That was no accident. Not a hunter just a dbag.
