Tundra Swan with my recurve.

I shot this swan with my recurve. Tundra Swan are on a draw system here in NC. It was a lot of fun. The goose thread reminded me of it.

I bet there aren't many people that can say they've done that with a bow. Was it in flight when You made the shot?

Looks like You've got a good helper there with You. Congrats

Yeah, It was in flight, but not real far away. It was around 15 yards. I missed the first 7 shots and got lucky on my 8th shot. That is my son. He looks like a tub in the picture, but I had him bundled up good. It was cold that day.
