I find they usually run away.
They almost never fight like men, but if they were real men they wouldn't do things like rob....

As far as bows I prefer recurve, a little more skill is required, but a good recurve has better range.

As far as hunting goes why not practice on house sparrows and Eurasian starlings, both are invasive with negative affects on native birds.
Got a pic of the sword?

I’m not sure if I have the patience yet to work a recurve any time soon. We did have a setup at my old house in the back yard with my 3D foam target coyote. That was fun. My bow is way too powerful to even think of going for a squirrel or a bird. Guaranteed I’m never using that arrow again, and even if I do hit it there’s no telling what it would hit after it goes through the target said animal.... that might be the impetus for me to start with a traditional bow. Lol.


Correct me if I’m wrong, but I was told this was a great sword when it was given to me.

Do you know what kind of steel is used in the blade? I hate stainless steel for swords for they are to brittle,

A good sword should be able to bend two or three inches(at the tip) and return to normal.

I have yet to ever see a compound bow to powerful for bird hunting , most are under 70 lbs draw (note both the longest range and fastest shooting world records belong to recurve bows, this is because recurve bows are true bows (meaning their strength comes from the bow itself) while in compound bows the strength comes from the cams/wheels making it more of a slingshot than a true bow))

If your worried about arrows, you can get arrows that are designed for duck hunting, they travel slower and stop quicker

A lot of guys will carry swords strapped to their backs out here while biking, I always thought that was cool

If I am not mistaken "Great Swords" have a hand hold in front of the hilt. 12 years of playing WoW........

Not necessarily, a great sword is a sword of long length that is meant to be wielded with two hands, not to be confused with long swords which are similar but meant to be used with less than two hands.

Eh doesn't matter, I'm no grammar nazi, half the time I double post everything (double tap)

You double post for the Counts. You know it because you re-edit the content! You kno you double post. Religiously every thread you wait to be the 10th of every page so you can double post without people notice but I NOTICED. Every single thread you double post. It’s called waiting! That circle thing after you press Post Reply means it’s posted. No need to double press FRIEND. Sorry its been on my chest for a while now. Honestly by now I already expect it from you otherwise it’ll be weird to see you only post once. Hope we can still be online friends after this.
