Thanks for all the nice comments guys, I appreciate them a bunch!
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

Congratulations on the great (short) hunt! Nice video. Just hearing those birds responding back in chorus gets me fired up for our season coming up in a little over a week.   :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

Thanks again folks for all the compliments! I have had several questions about my equipment, especially my video camera. I think many will be surprised at what I am using for a video camera.
     First of all, my bow is my BigEast recurve that is 62" long and just shy of 60lbs at my draw length. The arrows are Axis 400 with 125 gr brass inserts, 5" shield cut feathers and a 160 gr Snuffer (actually 185 gr with the screw in adapters).
     My video camera is a dual digital camera/ video camera that I bought at Radio Shack for just a little more than $100.00. It is only slightly larger than my cell phone. It takes 10 megapixel digital pictures and HD digital video footage. It also has a 5 power optical zoom. It is a Sanyo Xacti. It really takes great pictures and videos for something so small and relatively inexpensive. This is a picture of the camera in my hand for scale.

 
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.
