First Recurve Bird, with pic

[gundog870]

So I decided to go after a challenge tonight. I have yet to shoot a bird with my recurve so I set out to accomplish that tonight. I was just getting home from cabelas and look out past the deck adn there was a nice flock out there. so I ran into the house and geared up with the recurve. I preceeded to sneak down the deck adn stand on the Bench. I waited for a facing away shot. He began to puff up and cackle. 27 paces. the wooden arrow and 145 grain snuffer flew true. The Rest is history.

Tale of the tape,

3/16 of a pound.
0" spurs
4 inch tail feathers

um... according to state law. Those birds are a protected species. I'm actually talking to the DNR right now. They said to tell you, that you're pathetic......
But nice shot.
