Snakebite + Bait bins + Blind @ known range. Magnificent combo.

The game's first bow, and also the most powerful (recurve is a very par second). It's a little tough to learn at first for beginners due to wobble and how long it can be drawn, but significantly improves when you get to Level 3 with it. An absolutely devastating bow at close range and a must-have for every new hunter to help get used to the bows.

Re: Bows & Crossbows | Compound Bow "Snakebite"
In real life, once I started bow hunting I could just about hang up my gun (I said "just about"). So, this being my first bow on here, I loved it right from the start. Very powerful. I have practically retired it since the Python came out, but that is not because of anything other than it is not as quiet as the python.
I need to start bringing it out more for bears again.

Excellent- best bow overall. If you only carry one bow, take this one.

The Snakebite is the tank among the bows. Heavy and loud, but it doesn't take many prisoners. The pin is set for 20m which does not appear ideal for this bow. I would expect the sight to be zeroed at 40m, as you can reliably shoot any game at distances between 10m and 60m.

Re: Bows & Crossbows | Compound Bow "Snakebite"
Since the last update this thing is incredible as it should be. It is as powerful as the 300 mag close range. I've dropped moose and bear from over 50m that made my jaw hit the floor. It's pushing me to try shots I would never have tried. If I have to have only one bow this is it for versatility over the complete animal list in the game. All the bows are more than capable but the power at range makes it more versatile- I don't consider the Xbow a bow- I'm a bit of a purist on that subject.
OH and to echo Hoo- If they would develop an equivalent sight to the Parker 5pin for the snake, I firmly believe a significant amount of money would be generated overnight and thoroughly please a lot of people.
