I've hunted whitetails, moose, blackbear, caribou, antelope, turkey, hogs and javelina. Small game including groundhogs, cottontails and snowshoes, porcupines and squirrels. Regarding the big game I have only put my tag on whitetails and one antelope buck. It has been quite an adventure so far with more to come I hope!!  :thumbsup:    :jumper:

My strangest kill was a desert Jackal. I shot it while hunting rats in a garbage dump located on a Forwarding Operating Base (FOB) in Iraq.Yes, some of us do carry takedown bows in our gear. Its always the arrows that are a problem......

Lots of diversity so far.

You guys that hunt rabbits and ducks, how do you go about it?

I play beagle for my hawk all the time, flushing bunnies, but they usually shoot out of the brush like a flaming hairball and I don't know if I'd ever be able to shoot one of them with a bow.

And ducks, do you set up like you would with a shotgun, or do you stalk creeks and stuff?

All small game and such but big game has been Whitetails, mulies, elk, black bear and turkeys.  I'm still 0 for ??? on turkeys the rest have fallen to my arrows from recurves and longbows.  Medium game has been fox, yotes and bobcats.

whitetail deer
eastern turkey
ground hogs
mourning doves
Canada Geese

And lots of arrows.

My son and I bought airplane tickets for a 17-hour flight this morning. God willing, August 5-12 I'll be adding some critters to this list I can't even spell  yet!

Whitetail, turkey, coyote,bobcat, fox, rabbit, squirrel.  Out of reflex action, I clubbed a copperhead with my bow. Does that count?
