The strangest critter you've ever killed?

[jonsimoneau]

Ron you are too good at shooting. I think we need to "redistribute" your shooting ability in a "fair and balanced" approach!

[Charlie Lamb]

Shot a bat once and also a flying squirrel, but no pictures of those.

I've killed about a dozen weasels. Here's one of them.

My daughter was with me one day while out shooting at my target.  I wanted to show off and walked way, way back to about 35 yards and let an arrow fly.  Completely missed the bale and shot into the big pile of dirt behind the target.  It was quite embarrassing!  When I pulled the errant shaft out, there were two little baby field mice skewered on it.  I must have hit a nest.  I told her "see honey, I hit the mice I was aiming at".   She didn't believe me...

I guess this would be my submission Izzy.

 

Not strange but darn sure not common.

Cooch wins!

11'8" blue shark.Somebody bet me it couldn't be done.

COOCH is a one upper for sure. LOL

That is a trophy shark!!

Weirdest thing I've shot was a blue tailed Skink. My archery club has several outdoor ranges and these little guys get in behind the target faces.

It was a accident that I shot one cause he wasn't visible when I let the arrow go. It center punched him from about 25 yds.

Sky rats ( pigeons ), not here is Jersey, but back in Brooklyn.

I met a guy at the range one day to sell him a bow. After the deal was done and he'd left, I decided to do a little bit of shooting. No one was around so I took a couple shots at a distant bale from an unauthorized spot. The first shot was way low and disappeared under the bale. Second and third were right on so I wandered over to get my arrows.
After pulling the arrows on the target I looked for that first one that went low. I couldn't see it sticking out from the front so I looked behind the target. I saw the point poking out back there and it was moving back and forth slowly. With a sinking feeling I pulled the arrow out by the point, wondering what the weight I felt was going to be.
When I finally got the arrow all the way out there was a huge rat on the shaft up by the fletching. I'd center punched him in the gut.

I didn't really feel bad about killing the rat, but I could just imagine him sitting under those hay bales, maybe wondering what he was going to do with his day, when I suddenly decided for him that it wasn't going to be a good day after all.

A porcupine that kept trying to climb into my tree stand. I threw every thing in my back pack at it and started down by then came back at me.

[SKITCH]

Good Stuff!  Keep waiting for one of the Florida guys to post a pic of a Nutria!  Someone must have killed a few of those with a bow!

[Izzy]

I know a mess of nutria have been killed by Pdk (Pat) in OK.

[South MS Bowhunter]

Not strange for me as I see enough of these every year to be normal but this one had a surprise as for sheer size and contents.

 
 
 
 

[Izzy]

Dang thats a beast.

[Hopewell Tom]

It's gettin' stranger...

[Gdpolk]

Bows: I shot a yellow jacket in half to reclaim my spot under the only shade tree in my friends back yard.

[huskyarcher]

Yep Cooch wins. Cool stuff guys!

My only contribution would be a flying bumble bee, no pics though

[Flying Dutchman]

Izzy, you sure shot something ugly... but it aint half as ugly as my mother in law....
