Frick around and find out. If you're going to go after something large and dangerous you better kill it on your first attack or you won't get a second chance. I don't know why people think that humans are somehow exempt from the food chain or the rules of nature. Based moose proved that the weak should fear the strong.
It's more that they would die sooner rather than later, preferably before killing you and or running off injured never to be seen again. I don't really see the point of a bow where I live at least you can hunt with a rifle all year around, you can stalk in just as close as you like with a rifle or also take challenging long range shots.. unless maybe you couldn't own firearms for some reason, couldn't get licensed or whatever. But some places people can use them outside of season, or maybe they just like them, each to their own
Yeah right and people say Australia has dangerous wildlife lol. The most dangerous land mammal here is a fricking kangaroo and they get btfo'd by wedge-tailed eagles
I hear running into a moose on the road is a death sentence, meanwhile hitting a kangarat is some free steaks
i want to go hiking in montana, but i'm terrified of coming into contact with moose/grizzlies? what's the most compact but capable handgun i can drop one with if i have to?
i've been looking at pic related and i really like it
Deserves it for trying to kill the moose for no reason. Frick hunters unless you're going to eat it/use the hide. "Hunters" who kill just for the "fun" of it are shitbags
Do people forget that Moose are walking rage tanks that will frick you up for looking at it funny?
The only animal that fricks with a healthy fully grown Moose is the Orca and people of course.
I definitely respect the hunter for trying, but I feel no sympathy for him. He lived more in his last moments than most will in their entire lives, and now he gets take his place alongside all the other heroic fools who were laid to ruin in pursuit of glory.
If your gonna go, go violently and quickly.
I dont mind getting killed by a tiger if he's not gonna take 30 minutes to do the job, at least your last moment would be something .
There are not enough deer in the woods for every man or even half of them. We have way, way more people than deer, the problem with deer is there's so little forest land left we still have too many deer. Because there are so many people.
If you want to pull the self sufficiency card, hunting is a red herron. consider that it is illegal to have livestock in most cities and towns, even hens, and in other places it is even illegal to grow a garden on your own land. You can only have grass and inedible landscaping. This is to keep you dependent on centralized food production. Hunting is just noise to the oppression machine. It's a small minority of people putting a large amount of effort into a small minority of their food. Hunting does more to keep you enslaved than it does to help you. There is a massive industry built around selling you useless shit and complexes of laws obliging you too, when back in the day your granddad would shoot deer on the side of the road with a .22.
It is. >ITS OKAY JUST NEVER SHOOT FROM PAST 100 YARDS OR IF THE SHOT ISNT PICTURE PERFECT!
Eugene stoner wanted it in .308. The army wanted it gimped so it could fit into a combined arms scenario better, with moronic grunts carrying more ammo since they never hit anything anyways. Fanboys followed along, despite not working in combined arms units when hunting moose. What son, is the DMR going to take the kill shot while you stop the moose from running for better cover?
Not to mention their obectives and bullet types are totally different. A soldier doesn't care about preserving the pelt/mantle piece of an enemy combatant and will be using FMJ rounds and aiming for upper torso or head shots to dispatch quickly and efficiently. A hunter wants to do as little damage as possible while also killing the animal and will be aiming for heart shots that aren't often immediately lethal. Guy in OP was an idiot for not using a deer blind tbh.
They use FMJ rounds because some snobby eurocucks got mad about hollow points giving superior countries with superior manufacturing bases (AKA the US) too much of an advantage over their enemies. If it weren't for them armies would be using mechanically actuated high expansion, time delayed incendiary .50 caliber armor piercing rounds on enemy personnel.
Bow hunters always have some moronic rationale about "giving the animals an even playing field" or some shit, so he really can't complain about getting heemed by a moose.
You can use a bow throughout all of hunting season in Colorado but there's only 2 or 3 rifle seasons throughout the year. Plus, the low moisture creates high fire danger and guns will be banned on random days because of the potential to start a fire. It's not always about ego.
My aunt used to be big into triathlons and shit and likes in Colorado and I've heard if you're running or biking you gotta always be on the look out for mountain lions.
Depends on where you go. I've seen cattle, snakes, and deer on bike rides. Moose, pika, and marmots on hikes. No cougars but my co worker got one of them and an elk in his back yard (not at the same time).
Some bows are pretty strong. Arrow would sometimes pass right through even something as big as a moose. But not going to instantly destroy vitals like a bullet that makes a wide cavity, broadhead is going to more slice it's way through like a small spear so the animal may have time to run away for a bit or charge unless the arrow has literally gone through the heart or aorta
>trying to kill a moose with anything other than an ar15 with 223 bullets that literally blow animals into pieces with one semi full automatic shot
Ngmi
Eskimos were hunting polar bears with shitty bows and arrows for thousands of years. It just requires a lot of skill to sneak up on the thing and land the shot perfectly the first time. And keep in mind, they told Soviet soldiers in the arctic that you could mag dump a Kalishnikov into a polar bear and it'd kill you before bleeding out.
You ever see that video of a dude shooting a charging grizzlie near point blank in the head with a shotgun? Think just got right back up and looked a little dazed but that was it. Big animals that are angry aren't to be underestimated, ESPECIALLY bears.
Back in the day, our ancestors with bows went after these things in groups and shot them multiple times, in addition to chucking rocks and spears, and some of them probably had clubs or knives for if it charged them.
All hunting is a larp.
You're not sustaining yourself or your family, you're just playing a dumb game that pollutes the woods.

Due to wolf extirpation, deer and coyote are vermin. They HAVE to be hunted or they will cause even more ecological damage.
Elk, caribou, and moose hunts on the other hand are totally pointless and only exist to make the staties another few thousand. We do not have a surplus of elk or moose. In fact, we have a deficit, and staties will do dumb shit like blame wolf reintroduction for population deficits when the real cause is hunting permits suppression the population. If they simply told hunters to frick off, wolves would not be a problem for those animals. Of course if they left the wolves alone, deer overpopulation would not be long for this world and profits from hunting tags would plummet as the populations struck a balance and it became impossible for humans to kill additional deer without harming the ecosystem. For this reason, they hold wolf culls and lie through their teeth saying this:
"Wolves are overpopulated and are threatening the deer population"
You have no idea how much of a fricked up racket hunting is. It's needed, but for the wrong reasons, and if we fixed our shit it would not be needed, so they keep fricking up instead.

>pollutes the woods
lol how?
if I don't return with a deer I usually return with a bag of trash that blew into the woods from the stupid city people that leave their trash bags unprotected from raccoons and skunks.
I get that they use loud dogs intentionally to get to the animal but I think its fricking obnoxious and ruins the hunting experience when you have to have 3-4 little manmade abominations walking all over the animal that you are supposed to track and kill.
You'd have a hard time ever running into a pig in that terrain without them though. They're hunted quite heavily and one sniff of you and they'll be sprinting away and you can't really run after one through new growth bush it's thick as a jungle. Some are quite crafty if they have encountered dogs before as well they might run off in all different directions or something. I guess it's a matter of fact, meat in the freezer, pest control kind of hunting.. it works. Or you can sit out quietly at night and blast them when they come into open farm land.. things will soon enough make a paddock look like it's had a plough run through it
I forgot we had moose in Colorado
But also if you're gonna go after any bull with a bow I don't feel bad for you when you can't make the shot count and the animal gets it's turn, the same way I don't feel bad for the lion that gets it's shit kicked in while trying to take down the gazelle.
Feel a bit for the hunter's family, tho
My aunt used to be big into triathlons and shit and likes in Colorado and I've heard if you're running or biking you gotta always be on the look out for mountain lions.
There's truth to that. Cougars are just dumb cats and if they think you're running away from them (such as running a triathlon) their hunting drive gets triggered and they might chase. I grew up here learning to never turn your back on a big cat and especially never run from one (running away also applies to bear

Did he died?
lmao stupid bow hunter
He’s should’ve used a 9mm, that would’ve blown the moose’s lungs clear out the back.
>the bow injured him so badly that he might die
Isn't that the point of bow hunting?
It's more that they would die sooner rather than later, preferably before killing you and or running off injured never to be seen again. I don't really see the point of a bow where I live at least you can hunt with a rifle all year around, you can stalk in just as close as you like with a rifle or also take challenging long range shots.. unless maybe you couldn't own firearms for some reason, couldn't get licensed or whatever.

They're tall as frick. If you hit one in a car you'd chop it's legs out from under it and have a whole moose through the windscreen

Use hardened ammunition
Shotgun with high powered bear rounds. You will sleep better
Glock 19. Google “Handgun round effectiveness against bears”.
Deserves it for trying to kill the moose for no reason. Frick hunters unless you're going to eat it/use the hide. "Hunters" who kill just for the "fun" of it are shitbags
OK homosexual
I promise you I care more about the species I hunt and know more about them than you ever will.
not if you're hunting endangered species like moose
It's pretty based to kill invasive species for fun
Are bow hunter the stupidest people on earth?
Do people forget that Moose are walking rage tanks that will frick you up for looking at it funny?
The only animal that fricks with a healthy fully grown Moose is the Orca and people of course.
I wish all hunters would risk their life to hunt
I definitely respect the hunter for trying, but I feel no sympathy for him. He lived more in his last moments than most will in their entire lives, and now he gets take his place alongside all the other heroic fools who were laid to ruin in pursuit of glory.
>He lived more in his last moments than most will in their entire lives
yeah I'm sure he was totally thrilled to have a huge moose trampling on him
It was a once in a lifetime experience.
If you don't want to get tramped by a moose don't do a sub par job of killing it
I know I am
If your gonna go, go violently and quickly.
I dont mind getting killed by a tiger if he's not gonna take 30 minutes to do the job, at least your last moment would be something .
Pretty moronic view on death
Do you think cancer is better?
Yes? You get to choose what to do with your time other than brutalized then killed. Dumbass
Wauf incels want to think they are like Klingons or something. The only honorable way to die is in combat! Heghlu’meH QaQ jajvam!!
You should choose to have a nice day if it's a cancer with prolonged treatment. It turns you into a wraith, there's no way to maintain your dignity
not him but, while i'd rather die from cancer than a wild animal, i'd also rather die from a wild animal than die with alzheimers
Got mogged hard by a chad moose and is now seething
Bow hunting is so gay
Or hunting in general, biggest larp imaginable, full of crime and illicit behavior, completely useless for society
>t. Moose
Yeah whatever homosexual
>oy gevalt you cant just kill a deer and feed yourself for months goyim

i have a machine gunner flanking the moose actually, and since he never hits anything either i always end up calling in an air strike.
they are good but only in 5.56 which poor people's AR15s only supprot 223
Bro a 55.6 would blow an elephant to pieces with one shot. It's why the delta special seal forces uses them.
Special forces don't hunt elephants.
Yes we do
No, they don't. You're not even a grunt nor do you even hunt, basement dweller.

Good. They all too deserve it.
>these things can survive getting hit by semis
>try to shoot it with a shitty little bow
>t moron
You don't kill animals by making them bleed to death.
Some bows are pretty strong. Arrow would sometimes pass right through even something as big as a moose. But not going to instantly destroy vitals like a bullet that makes a wide cavity, broadhead is going to more slice it's way through like a small spear so the animal may have time to run away for a bit or charge unless the arrow has literally gone through the heart or aorta
git gud
moose are literally the coolest animal in the world
The coolest animal to blow into pieces with an ar15
a 223 wont even penetrate the skull of a moose. maybe if you loaded 5.56+P but that flimsy ruger ar-15 you bought will explode if you try
i wonder if the bow guy also tried aiming for the skull...
>trying to kill a moose with anything other than an ar15 with 223 bullets that literally blow animals into pieces with one semi full automatic shot

Do you even try bro?

That's bullshit.
War weapons are just too much for animals.
You ever see that video of a dude shooting a charging grizzlie near point blank in the head with a shotgun? Think just got right back up and looked a little dazed but that was it. Big animals that are angry aren't to be underestimated, ESPECIALLY bears.
You can find plenty of videos of people putting down full grown bull moose with single arrows in seconds. This was a skill issue.
no you have to use 9mm so it blows their lings out the other side
>.223 blowing a moose to pieces
>semi full automatic
Back in the day, our ancestors with bows went after these things in groups and shot them multiple times, in addition to chucking rocks and spears, and some of them probably had clubs or knives for if it charged them.
cool story bro
were you there
yes
Reincarnation.
Larper
this is how larpers hunt. because in NZ, they aren't allowed to throw a bag of corn on the ground and stand 50 yards away with an AR15.
You've no idea my bro

His family was so poor they had to resort to barefoot spearhunting in the woods
yes and technology advanced and now we use this little thing called a shotgun
