piddy3825 Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 I was out on the ice on Coastal Highway to do a little fishing in the shack that sits across the way from Misanthrope's and the bear den when out saunters this bear. Just so happens that I had crafted a new bow and about 2 dozen arrows so I decided to see if I could hit him from the doorway of the shack. I had to adjust my aim by increasing the arc of each shot and kinda leading my target but finally on my 9th shot I managed to get ranged in and I finally landed a hit. For me that's gotta be my longest bow shots ever. I'm guessing the distance might be close to 150 meters more or less? What's your longest bow shot? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteloud Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 I had an amazing shot with bow & arrow in my very early days of TLD. I was on the bridge near the dam in ML and there was a moose on the river down below and a long way off. I fired one arrow and killed it. If I was in the same situation again I would dismiss it as an impossible shot. I would not have had level 5 Bow skill, probably much lower. I was so new to the game I didn't appreciate how lucky I was. Nowadays it is not uncommon for me to waste 5 arrows on much near moose and not get a kill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piddy3825 Posted March 16, 2022 Author Share Posted March 16, 2022 Outstanding story @peteloud, isn't it funny how we can get lucky sometimes with an incredible bow shot and not realize how truly magnificent that shot was until much later? I often wish I recorded my gameplay more often just so that I could replay those magical moments because some of them are truly unbelieveable.

DiscoJonny Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I was once standing on the enclosed porch of the farmhouse in PV when off in the distance I saw the bear slowly walking thru the orchard towards Molly's barn. I opened the door and decided to take a shot. It was definitely a long distance shot and as luck would have it I ended up hitting the bear right in the butt! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeanda Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I have done the shot from the hut to the bear but I only wounded it,not fatally. Quite frankly I was lucky I could even see the bear🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpUpAway95 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) From the hill above the pond (near the spot where a backpack can spawn but a little closer to the pond) to a point more than halfway across the pond itself... I first shot a moose on the nose and he didn't detect me and ran (thankfully) instead of attacking me. He was running across the pond heading towards the huntinng blind when I reloaded a second shot and dropped him. I won't say it exactly hit where I aimed though... I was aiming/leading his head and it caught him in his back left leg. I was totally shocked that the game apparently gave me a critical hit (or else my first shot did so much damage that he had little health left).
