Who was the first white-man to shoot an elephant with a 115 longbow with a 1700 grain broad-head?
The first white person to take an elephant solely by using traditional archery tackle, without resorting to shenanigans like kneecapping with a rifle, is Bill Negley. He used a 100+ lb recurve built specially for the task by Fred Bear. He is also the first to have taken the “Big Five” by fair chase rules.
