Way to go.  Two critisisms, I offer these because you appear to be doing this as a professional effort so thought I'd offer these tips.  Get a different tripod that doesn't use tension to keep the camera in place so that as you are panning to keep the game in view it is a smooth glide.  Second, use the manual focus so that the camera doesn't accidently focus on the shoot through screen.  Focus at that distance will have a few feet of variance so you won't have to be adjusting constantly.  Hope those help.  

Keep up the good work.  Sounded like you had fun.

Thats pretty good with 2 shots one time I took 5 shots at a turkey and still did not get one. I believe my blind was too small not that my shooting was off. LOL

Talon...

I know you mean about the focus.  But for some reason that day (possibly the position of the sun).....we were getting a better picture from "auto."  Everything would have been fine if I would have shot sooner.  But as you well know...in traditional shooting...we are waiting for a "feeling"....a point where our brain says..."Take it...you can do this."  It just took a little longer.  My son had to move the camera....and in turn the screen was closer and the camera wanted to pick up on that.

No...I'm not doing it professionally....just for fun and memories.  I'm not giving up the shoot thru screens though.  They cover a multitude of sin.

Snag....a quiet...quiet bow!!...not to mention....with that screen down...they have no ideal. He also was fixated on two hens...I believe you can see one of them in the video.
