Well truth be known.... I missed! 20 yards a woofer.....no runs no drips no errors....nadda.....551 pm here they come all 17. Buddy goes pick one. I did.
First we saw 2 then 4 then 8 then they came running enmass. Put the brakes on short. Buddy thought it was because of the 5 hen decoys. I think it was because of an extra wide blind window. Us moving more than normal. Buddy not in black like i was. So the flock started to balk. He told to pick one and i did. It was at 20. Aimed at the body nothing fancy. No head lopping planned this hunt. Even sounded like a body hit. But the bird showed nothing. They spooked a bit. Ran a bit. But went around the the marsh bowl over the ridge. Arrow or bolt was clean. No blood no feathers no mess........ nadda. Clean miss and me back at the target range getting ready for tomorrow. I know how they come back. And now the farmer starts graining his cattle for the winter. This flock will only grow. I am told I am welcome to bring friends....

Too bad extra harvest tags are not available!
