Another hypothesis is that ?tzi was a hunter of alpine ibex; the longbow and quiver of arrows may support this notion.另一个假说是，奥兹是到阿尔卑斯山上猎野羊的猎人；他身上的长弓与箭筒算是证据。
His unfinished longbow was carved from yew, the best wood for such a purpose because of its great tensile strength.奥兹有一张未完工的长弓是以紫杉木雕的，它张力十足，最适合做弓。
