My suspicion is that it was meant to say "a single shot into the lungs" and got lost in formulation or translation.

high skill on recurve and long bow ? :))) You make me laugh ! I have 2 at recurve and I even didn't buy a longbow.... Who hunts with them ? People usually hunt with Snakebite and Parker, me included. Only the very old members or hardcore bowmen have high skill there so this is not a real challenge because there are no equal conditions for all to achieve this goal. Here is where developers blundered big time !

While the weapon skill certainly does help to a certain extend, I wouldn't at all consider it crucial. It's a rather minor difference, especially when it comes to this very mission.

Strange. My 2 lung shot whitetail didn't count ;)

@killertut: WELL DONE! ;) Glad to see that you finally got that one man! :)

People who want a "challenge". :)

On the contrary. The goal was to create a very difficult mission that not everybody would be able or willing to finish.
I think they met that goal quite nicely!
It's "Tod", with one bloody 'd'!

This is imho opinion not true all dedicated bow hunters i know hunt most likely with recurve/longbow. And this is a mission special designed for the veterans and they should be good with all weapons imo.

And there is no need to do the mission if you dont like it ;-)

That is what I've been doing. I just have not enough luck on that mission I guess ;)
