This hunter had huge balls! How many of you would face a 3,600 lb beast such as this with only an old school bow??? And no back up hunter with a rifle?
Amazing video, from the older days, when people understood hunting, and what a magnificent bow, 100# this nice looking gentleman bowman doesn't look like he could handle #100, no disrespect intended, that's some real Howard Hill hunting technique, does anyone know anything about this guy, haven't heard of him before Thanx
I'm not saying I would ever hunt a rhino but I will say the truth. This video was filmed in 1971. The Angola 🇦🇴 Civil War started in 1975 and started by communists (thanks commies) and when the country became too violent for tourists and people stopped going there poaching escalated. They poached black and white rhinos to extinction and lions and elephants are still being poached there. On top of that, the government of Angola is strict on travel, despite how tourism can boost their economy and therefore help their wildlife.
keith rice same - shame ... got to sell my own blackmail custom # 50 and use wife's # 40 ... Call it age ... Sucks .. One year on the waiting list - never able to shoot and enjoy my long awaited custom work lethal of art .. Pity !
as an avid hunter I think trophy hunting is dumb as fuck. If you- the one who is doing the killing, are not going to eat it, why would you kill an animal to collect dust as a mount somewhere on the wall.
The meat in these type of hunts is always distributed to nearby villages. In turn, the villagers kept poachers out. They often also got a part of the hunter's fee.
Rhino's are not endangered because of trophy hunters. Rhino's are endangered because of illegal poachers who take the horns to sell to China etc and leave the meat to rot. Trophy hunters have almost zero negative effect on game populations. Poachers are unchecked and run rampant through herds and will wipe out an entire herd to get two or three good ones. trophy hunters take one selected animal and give the meat to the local villages who are often hungry for the protein. Not to mention the money they put in to the economy. Thousands of dollars. You should learn more about how game conservation works and why hunting is necessary in many areas.
I hunt Red deer with a bow and have missed once when my arrow hit a twig in flight. All others have been killed under 15 meters with one arrow. Missing a Rhino he should hang up his hunting boots. The lion he took was unsporting also. Baiting and shooting from a vehicle is not fair chase.
There's a LOT of difference between poaching and LEGAL hunting! Wildlife biologists are the ones who decide what and how much to hunt of any animal. If it's endangered, the hunting is stopped. Most species will overpopulate if not controlled.
***** More pronghorns now than 100 years ago. Bison were NOT killed off by modern hunters. They were slaughtered mostly because the government wanted to starve the Indians. Also, it was ranchers who saved what there are left of them. The whitetail deer is by far the most hunted game animal in the US and there are 100 times more whitetails now than in the 30s. The main threat to wildlife in the US is too many people and too many roads and cars.
Hunting is part of the culture in many areas. If you grew up in a filthy city, drugs and crime are your culture. I personally have no interest in going to Africa or anywhere else to hunt. I hunt and fish for food, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy the woods and the challenge. It's entirely possible even today to avoid buying any meat by hunting and fishing. With a garden, you can avoid buying vegetables. The fact is city life kills more wildlife than living in a rural area and hunting and fishing.
pgiuser hunters are important to control game populations. also hunters put a lot of money towards conservation through purchasing licenses and guns and ammo. plus hunters mostly are out to take meat home for their families.

does anyone know anything about this guy, haven't heard of him before
Thanx
He was a good friend of Fred Bear of Bear Archery. That's why he uses a custom 100 pound Bear Super Kodiak recurve bow.
Ohh I flinched and missed. We need another 3 & 1/2 weeks of all expense paid hunting nirvana.
I see what you did there!

I would never want to kill a rino, but what a video, it's like a Time machine
Beautiful stuff! Long live the bow hunters....!👍
Especially the ones without training wheels.
What is beautiful about it? Dumb looser.
Museum requested the hunt. What a specimen
100 pound pull . its hard for me to pull my 50 pound bow

He didn't need much gear. A Bow, one arrow and a pair of shorts, that's pretty good when your hunting Rhinos !!
The pursuit of happiness. And meat.
Awesome Hunt 👍🏻💯
who's watching in 8012
8012? Are there still humans? Lol
What a good guy let the mommas go on their way.
Rhinos kill people. Meat for the villagers. Great video.
Did he really go after a rhino with 1 arrow? I assume the natives had some extras for him?
I couldnt imagine such a behemoth could be put down using a plain bow

I'm not against it, just curious, isn't that the species of rhino that's damn near extinct?
Flex Beanbag back in the day it wasnt
Black rhinos have around 5,500 of their species left and 5 are still allowed to be hunted every year
It’s white rhino…officially extinct…bt 2 female left
yes it is, but due to poaching, not hunting.
Who is the hunter ??
Bill Negley, He passed in 2006 at age of 92. What a life he lived!
11:37 dang what model Merrells is that?!!?!?? LMFAO
Finn Comfort Vassa shoes?
Hunting Endangered black rhinos. Ivory. Killing for museums..Times have (thankfully) changed. Good to know the past though:)
They weren't endangered then, and only became endangered because of poaching. That only happened because the hunting stopped. Big difference.
THATS FUCKING ILLEGAL
Uh, this video is decades old!
For what purpose exactly would a rhino be hunted?
MrMarkpark it was a specimen at the museum... he said so earlier.
Natives eat anything and the horn is for Japanese and Chinese. They think it helps their love life. :)
No good ones
👍
Meanwhile, back in 2016 the Black Rhino is virtually extinct. Thanks Fred!
Thanks to hunting haters, a lot of animals are now gone.

James Cooper excellent answer!
Amen
Crazy hunts. But he seems to miss a good bit. And every video is one big pat on his own back.

Yup spot on j just made similar comment about him showboating his failure
Wow,your a real Daniel Boone.Give yourself a pat on the back.
Museum requested the hunt.. no you paid the museum a fortune to "request" the hunt.
luv the old porno music
isn't this illegal?
Well not anymore as the Black rhino does no longer exist.
+Neutrino are you fucking stupid they 're just critically endangered u idiot I'm doing a project on them so I would know!
+The Guardian and poaching was the problem not hunting

Nowadays they shoot people that do this !!!!!!! 😡🤬🥵
No, they shoot poachers.
Fucking Heartbreaking
Dont unserstand why its important for hunters to kill animals. Perhaps a hunter can explain that.
Hunting is part of the culture in many areas. If you grew up in a filthy city, drugs and crime are your culture. I personally have no interest in going to Africa or anywhere else to hunt. I hunt and fish for food, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy the woods and the challenge. It's entirely possible even today to avoid buying any meat by hunting and fishing.

pgiuser hunters are important to control game populations. also hunters put a lot of money towards conservation through purchasing licenses and guns and ammo. plus hunters mostly are out to take meat home for their families.
Why is anything important to anyone?
It's very difficult to eat them if you dont kill them first. All animals have a place. Right next to the mashed potatoes and gravy.
FOOD AND GOD GIVEN RIGHT TO EAT!
