You get one month to prepare. For the geese, you only can use your bare hands and all three will come at you at the same time. For the bear, you can use any one weapon invented before 500 AC.

You receive $100,000 for each goose killed, or $10,000,000 if you kill the bear.

        Ah ah, no modifying the terms after the initial statement.

        Besides, @[email protected] 's early prototype crossbow won’t do them much good unless they have the upper body strength to draw it, which basically required lifelong training to do effectively.

        Same goes for the spear - not much good if you don’t have the strength to push it through the ribcage into the heart. Anything else is just going to make the bear angrier.

          Bear spears are usually used in a way that you just plant it in the ground and let the bear run into it, hopefully piercing its heart! Or else you have a pissed of bear about a metre from your face lmao So a bear spear is viable if you are brave, dumb, steady and knows where to aim it

            I feel like a month of spear training you’d have a decent chance. Not as high as against the geese where you just grab by the neck and smash, but not infinetesimal either.

        Oh come on, even if it worked, OP was going to miss or not critically wound it. I’d assume spare arrows would count as extra, and reloading takes time a bear won’t allow.

        The spear actually was the preferred choice by people who did this.
