Squirrelhunter,
Don't let some of these guys get you down, I don't know of any one that didn't shoot tweety's with the BB gun, and I shot and shot at plenty of critters with my bow when I was a kid.
I grew up in a small town of around 100 people, mostly older retired people they always were after me to take care of the rabbits in town so I shot them with my bow and a .22 IN TOWN I was always careful where I was shooting. I don't think that was such a good Idea (the .22). I now live out in the country a I'm sure my kids will shoot their share of sparrows, starlings and whatever else offers them a shot.
Keep practicing but just don't post it, some here are perfect!
Oh Yea I forgot. How many people eat the coyote, badgers, skunks, coon, crows, prairy dogs, or any other varments they kill?
Although racoon is pretty tastey but a little tough! seriously!
