How zelda **** me over

So anyway, today I decided to play some zelda cuz its a sick game and whatever.Anyway, I'm not that far cuz I only got my wii a little while ago and ive been kinda busy with school and hockey lately.So, Im at the part where you have to escort the sick zora kid to the karaiko village to be treated, and I realize that to kill the guy to cross the bridge, you have to shoot arrows at him while he charges at you on his horse.So then I realize that I only have 1 arrow left and thats not enough to kill him so i exit to the wii menu and start again to go buy some arrows. When I get to the store in hyrule, the arrows are $2,000 at that rich store, so Ilook around some more for another store, realize there isn't one, and decide to head back to ordon or karaiko village to buy more arrows.then I realize that the paths back to those places have been blocked off and theres no way to go back to get arrows to kill the enemy. that means that i cant proceed and have to start all over again. theres no way im going through 12 hours of relatively slow game play again.Besides the fact that I already know exactly what to do and it would be boring. SO for now i think ill quit and go play some sonic until the summer or something and ill start again then.

do what i did. run close but not too close and swipe with the sword. three or four hits and he fall off.

LISTEN!!!!!!!!!!!!
you can beat him from your horse with the sword, i beat it that way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!tortitamal

yea...thats what i did...granted its not as smart but it still gets the job done...

You should get more arrows from the girl if you run out, you just have to go to the end of the bridge.

I, too beat him with the sword.  If you try the sword technique, I would move to one side of the bridge as he approaches, just as he get close; quickly move toward the other side and swipe him with the sword.

I can remember which side is easier, but it may be different for you if you are on the GC version anyway. :)
