Bowhunting Question




Bowhunting Question - Are frontal shots on elk ethical?GrizzlyStik Answer - Absolutely, if you're shooting a heavy enough arrow & broadhead system, it's one of the most ethical shots we can recommend. Bowhunters simply can't put an animal down any faster when their broadhead starts at the front and ends out the hammie. In rifle hunting, we eithically hunt elk much differently with a .338 shooting 250 grain bullets vs. a .270 shooting a 150 grain bullet. With the .338, we can both 'bone hunt' the shoulder/spine/humerus or take 'raking shots' to quickly break down an animal.The same principle holds true when shooting our GrizzlyStik 650 grain system of tapered, high FOC arrows and surgically sharp, single bevel broadheads. If a hunter can tell where the vitals are - green light - regardless of body position. Just like that .338, the 650 system is going to break any bone it encounters and keep penetrating. |
