I was just talking with a buddy of mine who is an avid bow hunter. He made mention of the species he took with his bow. I suggested a 10 day safari in RSA with me and he could double that amount!

We laughed because although it's not shooting fish in a barrel, but the areas are so target rich and the strategies are so well thought out that it's entirely possible to see hundreds of animals in a week or two and seeing 20 or more big game species is almost a certainty.

He chose to hunt New Zealand because his heart is set on a giant red stag with his bow. Can hardly blame him, they are magnificent!

So what species of big game have you taken with a bow?

Mule Deer, Elk, Antelope, Black Bear - the ones that are readily huntable yearly in Idaho. Multiple small game - coyotes, badgers, rock chucks, grouse etc. also. Much prefer to hunt Elk over all the others.

Just Whitetail Deer and wild pigs in Florida. I will try for a Bear in October for Florida's reopening of the season. My goal is still to go to Africa and use the bow for Leopard, Lion , Kudu, Bushbuck, Zebra and Gemsbuck. I could then die happy!
