Justin Snyder:
95# or more. I would use a selfbow just so people are sure it wasn't some FG abomination.  >:D I am trying to find another piece of Ipe that is suitable for the job. Salt Cedar shoots make a super heavy shaft, I have some that are 900 grains. I also might make tapered shafts from Jatoba or Ipe to increase the weight. For the points I would probably go 1 1/4" wide with a steep angle. Guys who have shot them with compounds have had better luck with steeper angle broadheads. I would make the points from the stone I got from Cowboy since it is harder than steel anyway.  ;) I have been looking into this for some time and I am going to do it.  It is just a matter of finding the time and the money at the same time.  ;D Justin

I think I just peed myself a little recognizing that quote from my childhood....10th Street Bridge, Bill Cosby!

JackCrafty:
okay, if you think it can be done, what would your setup be?

At the risk of sounding like a know-it-all.....I've got two words.....atlatl dart >:D

Google mammoth hunting. Lot's of good theories there.

I wouldn't try this on my own, in any case.  Might even try driving the buffalo into water or (over a cliff) to slow it down. ;D

Long range and .50  cal! Or .45-110!!!

A10 Warthog with the depleted uranium shells and a second Warthog to back my shot.
