And in reality, you would not let the animal suffer that long, too.

Consider to buy one smallest amount of light arrows. Ammo you use on the shooting stands, does not get depleted, never, no matter which stand you use (just make sure you always stay on the stand, not on the range between stand and target, for example!) . It makes the arrows you shoot on targets more visible to you once they hit, you can immediately see where you hit, even at great distance, without needing binoculars. Do not use these special arrows for hunting, there they would get consumed - and must be bought new.

Cool stuff. Tried that range at Redfeather, comes in handy learning some of the animals.

You are equipped for any hunt now - while my hunter mate gives much more tracking info already (in some categories I am level 10), and I have LRF info for bow and air rifle hunting. You could also benefit from those of my my callers that you still do not have.

Yeah, hunting in teams. Sorry about that, got sidetracked yesterday.

Although the weird bug yesterday would've made it difficult though.

Sure thing.
