I took a hen and rooster spruce grouse in Canada a few years ago (there on a moose hunt). Both were shot with my longbow, but both were sitting in a tree when I shot. I've shot lots of aerial targets, but haven't tried a flying bird yet. Hope to find a spot to try for pheasants eventually (no pheasants in MS). I got one bird with a hard rubber blunt, the other with an Ace Hex-Head blunt. The Ace head is the best blunt I've ever used, including judo's.
