Someone on another site just informed me that honeybees numbers were declining. I had no idea. He seemed sincere. Anyone here have any info. I feel bad if I do something unethical but of course I probably kill more with my riding mower. My shooting just aint that good.

Just heard on the other site that he was correct. I can honestly say I never killed a thing I didnt intend to eat until now. Was it the newness of the sport or was it something primal? I cannot say.
 For those who were aware of the declining population of honey bees I apologize. I will refrain from shooting anymore of them. Sorry.   :(

I don't see a leg tag.  How did you haul him to the check station?

Where's your tag?  I don't see a leg tag & it's obvious you move the carcass prior to tagging.

Kevin, don't appologize to us here, we are all kindred spirit.

Check my response on Bowsite. Some of us got your back and won't put someone down just to make ourselves feel better.

Good luck in the upcoming deer season!

Watched a TV special on the 'hive disorder" or whatever it's called... the research team thought it was a cataclysmic combo of mites, infection and a 3rd factor I can't remember.

When whole hives go missing, one bee isn't a catastrophe. There is nothing they've found to stop it.

They showed folks in Europe hand pollenating olive trees and fruit trees...talk about labor intensive!

That is an amazing feat right there and you should apologize to nobody! Thanks for sharing!

I won't tempt you  :)  by saying you probably can't do it again... so did you get him on the "wing" or sitting?  :)  :)

Doc, hand pollenating? I just got this vision of workers rubbing dead bees on olive and fruit trees! LOL

I have to be honest and tell you I shot them sitting. Quite a feat for me. I should probably try some wing shooting, surely my success rate would drop alot.
