Bear hunting
recurve shooter:
balista. ;D
mullet:
Indiancharlie killed damn near a record bear in Canada a few years ago with his long bow. I think he is shooting around 65#. He said it didn't go far after he shot it.
redwasp:
.44 mag. for backup ;).
brokenhand:
The last bear I killed with a bow was with a 58# at 28, and it did a fine job....brokenhand....Aho.
WVFishFearMe:
You see plenty of videos of the bears running away when shot. I saw a video that changed my mind about shooting a bear from the ground with a bow - it defoliated the area and stood my hair up. Someone else said .44 Mag backup. In WV you must have a concealed weapons permit and can not carry the pistol outside your clothing during a bow hunt.
