Last season I saw the biggest raccoon I have ever seen while in my stand. I did'nt know they got that big, this thing was like a small black bear, LOL!! I was'nt sure if they were in season yet, so I just watched him go by me at about 25 yards. Turns out it would have been legal andI could have had a nice mount made out of him. Anyone ever take one? or a skunk? (had a shot at one of those too)

Yea I've shot lots of coons with my bows,never a skunk though;tooooooo smelly.

Yup, I've shot racoons, ground hogs and porcupines, but I leave the skunks alone.

Yes to both plus porcupine, squirrells, rabbits,Rats. groundhogs, grouse & pheasant. When I was a kid growing up & B/4 a DEER SEASON IN ILLINOIS I bowhunted small game every season.

[:'(]I would strongly advise you not to shoot a skunk! I dont care how fast you can run the smell will still hit you[:'(]... Yes i know this from experience

2 farms I hunt have a rule that you have to shoot any and all raccoons you see in orderto hunt the farm. You should see the smiles I get when pulling them out, more so than when I get a deer. I guess raccoons can do a lot of damage to corn?

His buddy sells the hides of every one we shoot.

I once made the mistake of shooting a VERY large groundhog with a field point. I was only about 12 or 13. To make a long story short, tyhe field point didn't kill the groundhog quickly. As I was holding the ggroundhog down with my bow to get another arrow, he grabbed my bowstring and steel cables (Jennings Forked Lightning) and chewed them clean through in a few seconds. As he ran off to lick his wounds, I heard him muttering obscenities about stupid kids, and he vowed rvevenge. I don't mess with groundhogs any more for that reason. TRUE STORY!!!!!!

I shot a coon in the throat several years ago with a 2.5" vortex broadhead........messy.

never had a shot at one

Don't have coons here but have a lot of skunks and they are just coming out from the winter. I have shot several with the bow and the only problem I had was when the arrow stayed in the skunk. I usually leave the skunk for a day before I go to garbage bag it and then get my arrow. As long as you pass through the arrow doesn't smell. If it does smell a little downy fabric softner (just like you use on dogs when sprayed) will take the foul smell away.
