Boars in Pickering
- Thread starter klr_guy
- Start date
could be a variety of reasons. more challenging, less noisy, easier to practice, cost (no bullets), noise, by-laws in certain areas restrict firearms but say nothing about bows.
also, bow hunting season starts earlier so you get less competition.
Yup. Arrows suck. I've seen deer staggering around with arrows sticking out of them out this way.
My brother won't hunt with people using mechanical broadheads anymore. Way too many fail to open and just punch a tiny hole and leave a wounded animal.

Cute pig. Lots left out of that story. To start with they blamed the injury on a human arrow or bullet with no apparent wound. Maybe it just slipped on a rock. It's tusks disappeared at the animal sanctuary with no mention. It's hard to save every animal, especially those that are invasive and can have dire consequences if they escape.Facebook link. Tissue please.

It kinda freaks me out -- he hunts alone, from the ground, and sometimes for big stuff. I think meeting a 1300lb bull moose or 500lb bear at 10 yards would make me **** myself. He 2 weeks ago he was on a solo hunt, he bagged a 500lb black bear on a thru and thru shot with a crossbow at 10 yards from the ground.
His view is the hunt is fairer, but mostly the adrenaline rush is unbelievable.
Oh I'm sure it is. Good for him, but solo trips like that can def turn ugly fast.

I don't worry much about the projectile, it more about what happens in the event of a missfire. A moose or bear could run or charge -- you never know. Miss with a 308 at 10 yards solo and you get another couple of chances about 1 second apart. Miss with an arrow... could be Indiana Jones time.
Good argument for carrying a sidearm but JT is more worried about optics than safety. One of my brothers friends was trapped in a tree while bowhunting with a pack of coyotes below that wouldn't leave. He was up there for hours and they were just waiting for him to come down. Phonecalls brought a shotgun into the mix and they left quickly.

He has a carry permit, but it's a bit tenuous when hunting as the rules say long gun only. He does pack when solo, I think where he lives there is a big of give as long as he's not hunting with a 45.

You are right, i,m not going to post those pics as they are frightingly similar.
subway is the 'world's largest fast-food operator'?!?
Well I’ll be damned…not #1 but pretty close to McDonalds…
List of the largest fast food restaurant chains - Wikipedia
Just from personal experience when I was a travelling salesman through southwest Ontario….there were more subway restaurants than Tim Hortons…every small town had a subway. And I always had a sub there as a lunch time snack.
