70 yards at dusk with a compound bow, wow!! Then he went back to recover the kill while the wolves still circled him. Clang, clang, clang!

If he took out the alpha then the wolves will stay close until the carcass is hauled away. If he had taken one of the others, things might have gotten dicey if the alpha thought he had a chance at a meal.
It is wierd that once they saw it was a man that they didn't back off. Maybe he was hunting close to the den area or maybe they were just trying to get him to move out of their hunting territory.
It may also be that the wolves, having never been hunted, had little fear of him. You can bet that has changed now.

Holy crap that's a biggun! Long poke too. Arrows are still lethal though, very much so! Love it. That was a wicked cool story.
Anyone else see that movie GREY?....

That movie came to mind also but I have not seen it. My movie partner did not not take a shining to the trailers ... or the teeth.
