The question of is lion hunting with a bow a stunt was answered yesterday:
" How likely is it that an expert archer can kill a lion with a bow using just one arrow?
100%, in seconds."
So you can put that aside for the future.
So will a properly placed 22 or a spear. It doesn't mean it's the best way or even smart...
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
