Bow Hunting Illustrated

By George Frangoulis

BOW HUNTING ILLUSTRATED: Bow hunting is the practice of hunting game animals by archery. Arrows, bows and sights are commonly of the more modern varieties. However, all effective variations, including crossbows and wooden bows launching wooden arrows with stone points, are used. Big game hunting requires a draw weight of 35+ lbs. For larger game such as elk or moose, 50+ lbs. is suggested. Most male American archers can draw a bow rated at 50-60 lbs, most women 30 --40 lbs. Lighter arrows, other things being equal, will give a higher speed and a flatter trajectory. Arrows with mass more than 900 grains (58 g) carry more momentum, and penetrate better in large animals, so might be the bow hunter's choice when hunting these animals. The photos in this book portray this popular outdoor activity.
