[QUOTE="TwoForFlinching, post: 2775423, member: 24500"] FIFY... and there's nothing wrong with having that opinion. But you know it may not be shared by others. There isn't any hard data out there to answer this question. Sure, some websites will say 50%, others will say 90%, but the truth is this... The science has not be done. Personally, I can't even give an example or ballpark number, as I don't find the idea of bow/crossbow hunting alluring. I may romance the idea when the cold of Fall hits, but hunting my open country isn't ideal for it. I think a proper answer would be the percent of game hit with an arrow is always 100% recovered by skilled and successful hunters. Again, the science hasn't been done. Some studies debate whether death comes within seconds or minutes, but it's based entirely on the success of a competent hunter. I've watched deer take off and dash 150 yards, discovering upon inspection the complete absence of a heart. Hunting deaths are rarely instant, but such is the circle of life. I'm not sure if you're trolling or not... It's irrelevant what method he used. Both are fine weapons suited for the job of killing even big animals. The success rate lies solely with the skill of the hunter. [/QUOTE]
