Mark...I thought it was strange to have to aim up at a 45 degree angle at a "Turkey" while sitting in a camp chair.  You should see the hole Brent put in my blind...it's about a foot over the top of the window opening. Nailed that bird dead center though...and it was only a Jake!  :scared:  

Admin...this thread should probably be moved to "Dangerous Game".

OK, since Morin let the story out, It was huge! Especially from that puptent Randy calls a blind. The reason I had trouble getting my armguard on? I felt like with two of us in there we are a small group of drunk college students seeing how many people could get into a phone both.    :smileystooges:  

And we werent no where close to that ostrich farm this time Mark! Just before I loosed the arrow, Randy was kind enough to offer an ancient Cherokee prayer. I can't remember it, but there was something about EMU or something like that. Biggest Jake I ever seen.

Trad-only, no back up gun here, kill or be killed...that's my motto. Although I can't say I wasn't scared out of my mind. That bird looked a lot like something off of a Japanese horror movie.

You guys think those big chickens are tough...you should try hunting those miquitoes in Alaska some time!   :eek:  I overheard a group of those skeeters talking one time over a fresh moose kill...."Whatta ya think guys, should we eat him now, or take him with us."   There were only 4 of them talkin too!  :scared:

Had the same thing happen to me.  Shot one completely through at 5 yds from the rear with a Snuffer 160.  He flopped all over and I thought sure he was done.  He started to stagger off and I thought about putting another arrow in him but I didn't because I kept expecting him to fall over.  By the time I realized he wasn't going to fall over, I didn't have another shot.  Never found him.  Lesson learned. If I can get another arrow off, I'm shooting.

By the Way Brent--I Know it Ain't The Bow!! I'll be looking for a pic in the near future to prove, "You Da Man". I'm telling you, The Sheepeater is the ULTIMATE Blind Bow. Dang that little rascal is sweet in close quarters. If you don't want to brag too much here, just send me the pic. Ralph
