Thanks guys...as you can imagine, I was very,very proud of him! To make it even better, his grandpa(our back-up shotgunner), my dad was there as well to see it all!
I believe it was the very next point flush, when I got lucky and made good on a long crossing shot and knocked one out of the air with my new Morin Banshee longbow!
Don actually has a cool pic of my arrow connecting...
This is what happens when you try to take a pic with a "not-so-dead-yet" pheasant...

I may have made the longest shot of the hunt, but without a doubt Terry made the coolest shot!
This bird flushed straight up and decided to fly right over the line of shooters. Terry swung on the bird and waited till hecleared the other shooters and was directly above his head.
I mean he was twisted, leaning back, reverse canted, shooting directly over his head as the bird crossed about 20ft over his head...and he just hammered him in one of the most contorted positions I've ever seen!
As excited as I got over my shot, I think I carried on even more over the shot IU'd just witnessed Terry just pulled off.....it was one of those you really needed to be there, to see it, to appreciate it...

The birds were falling out of the sky with surprizing regularity. Everyone was shooting very well.
•
Don soon called Cade in on another point. This time on a hen. He once again snuck into position and made a perfect shot....he was on top of the world!
•
Cade asked if I could mount them for him....what was I gonna say? He's very excited and already has a spot picked in his room. His first mount of something he killed himself!
