That is awesome. I have thought about doing that. Did you use the sights or just wing shoot him? I would like to try that with a recurve.

Very nice! That would make a cool flying or cupped mount with the arrow sticking through it! Tred Barta would be proud...

That's awesome! I was just reading through the regs again, and noticed that it's legal to use a crossbow as well I think that would be a hell of a lot of fun.

Outstanding I tried duck hunting several times with a bow many years ago, and though I had some close shots, I never connected.
I noticed too crossbows listed as legal in the current waterfowl digest. That would be a change as it was not before.

Thats Awesome !! I use to shoot grackles sp? at about 20 yards. Lost a lot of arrows cause they would go right through them and disapear in the foliage ! I started using flu flu arrows with a recurve but never really got good at it.
