Love your videos Clay, you just seem like a good guy anyone would be lucky to have as a neighbor or friend. Stay well and keep recording.

Always enjoy the videos Clay. Never tried a bottle, I usually use a large chrome plated Phillips screwdriver. Will have to try the glass bottle though. Pretty cool! Thanks for sharing.

I opened the link, and it took me to the YouTube screen that lists all four of your videos on the right, but then nothing happened: would not play.  Found no start arrow icons.  What am I doing wrong?

I surely did enjoy your rabbit hunt!  When you find your arrows after all that snow (jealous we have none) you may need to use your great technique again.  
another great one!  keep em coming.

I use a rope pulley, Get one made for rope a little larger than the arrow shaft size say half inch. Lay the arrow on a flat surface and roll it to find the bend, use the pulley to roll down down the high spot.
