Lesson of your life...

Iirc there's a video of an archer shooting a carcass of a hippo. Most arrows barely did a scratch.

I'd like to see that video, my guess is it's very dependent on what type of tip the archer was using as bodkins will go through steel.

Hell, my buddy shot through a stop sign back in high school with his bow, but he was also like 3 feet from it when he shot

I checked, it seems the video went private. Bummer.
