Single arrow one shot bear kill... to the buttocks

[piddy3825]

Taking a chance on a bear kill out on the ice at CH across from Misanthrope's  with my back up go to fishing shack as my only place for retreat if the deal goes wrong.  Got a bow with 3 arrows, fully loaded rifle so I am thinking I sneak in close take a bow shot at him and if it hits then he will come charging, I'll switch to guns and take the head shot if I can...

might be able to sprint back to the shack, but at least can limp back there in case things go bad.  Imagine my surprise when this happens.  I couldn't believe it myself except for the parabolic arc of my arrow is burned into the air like a tracer round.   pretty cool if you ask me.

Walking towards the bear under my arrow tracer

Looking back at the shack angle.  the tracer ends at the impact point of the arrow as the bear is in midst stride, basically hitting him directly in the left butt cheek, lol.

after 8 hours of harvesting and running back and forth to the shack, the tracer was still visible.  By the way, could not get the arrow out... didn't let me put the cursor on it, I come back later and see if the arrow remains.
