Texas Pheasant!
« on: March 07, 2011, 11:07:00 PM »
I went on my second bow pheasant hunt last Saturday. It was sponsored by the Lone Star Bowhunters Assn and called Pheasants and Flu-Flu's. We had 5 hunters (all trad). One guy was on a scatter gun and mopped up after we missed with the arrows. I was able to get one bird out of the air with my recurve. Here is the pic:

 

My good friend, Gene Bohannan, also got his first out of the air, with a selfbow. Here is a pic of his bird:

 

Here is a group pic at the end of the hunt.

 

Pheasant hunting with a bow is a heck of a good time. I can't wait to get to go again.

Good shooting Bisch. Besides the birds, who are all those other near-do-wells lined up?

Congratulations on your pheasant!  That's awesome shooting to be able to bring one of them down!  I have a hard enough time when using a shotgun.  Thanks for sharing your pictures.
