bowhunting definitely makes you more manly than regular hunting.

note: hunting only adds points to your manliness when you take down animals larger than yourself, or animals capable of killing a full sized human with ease.

Hunting with the following is the most manly, in order of awesomeness:
  1. Your Bare hands: If you hop on a grizzly bear's back and strangle it to death, you win life
  2. A soft object (ex. nerf ball, pillow, etc): Show those animals what opposible thumbs can do
  3. A blade smaller/duller than a basic kitchen knife
  4. A blade that is very large, ie a sword or axe
  5. A blunt object
  6. a spear-like object
  7. a hunting knife
  8. a gun not made for hunting (bazooka, minigun, tank, artillary, etc)
  9. a bow
  10. a pistol
  11. a vehicle (intended hunting)
  12. a rifle/shotgun
  13. a vehicle (unintended "hunting")

There are of course other things that are MORE COOL. like a road flare or something. But that list is pretty much a good idea of the most manly things to hunt with. I'm entirely serious, none of this is sarcastic at all.

I use a buckmaster to, they really are a great bow. i only bowhunt Elk and it sure is a rush when you call one in and there awful mad and looking for you. i think bowhunting is one of the greatest sports invented and if you do it properly takes alot of time and patience but can yeild you some great animals

I have those exact same arrows, you thief, lol! How 'bout using one of THESE for turkey hunting:
They're called guillotine heads. You can guess what they do.

carbon all the way, they are expensive, but imo they are totally worth it.

is that the same material that they make the carbon paintball barrels with?
