Dead chicken
« on: October 08, 2009, 06:14:26 PM »
I dont know why but i have horrible luck at getting a grouse with a bow and after several tries throughout the years, I finally got one!  :chuckle: I probably have 7 or 8 arrows out in the woods somewhere that I've lost shooting at them over the years. I'd either miss because the arrow would deflect off a branch or something or I'd be and inch too far to the left or right. Anyhow, I just had to vent!!!  :P

That's a great shot, you didn't hit the breasts.

You aren't kidding! I plan to get a new one real soon. I waxed it pretty well the other day but its worn off quite a bit lately. That string has miles on it from the last 4 seasons let me tell ya!

We saw quite a few along the S. Shore road when we were up there.

Thank you.

Hey, we saw three birds, twice in one day near H. Peterson's old place.

congrats Jesse...nice to see you out and about.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
