Gets my vote!....wondering what range most of your shots were at?

HAHA!!  Nice work.  I like it.  Those are probably my single favorite critters to hunt.  Nice video.

Diligence,

Most of those shots were within 20 yards or so, but the very last 2 shots were 30 yards or a little bit more.  You can tell they're kinda far when I slow the video down cause you can hear the arrow in flight for a while before it hits the ground.

 Another fun critter to hunt with a bow is free range chickens. You wouldn't believe how fast they get educated when you start slinging arrows at them.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

EXCELLENT! I really like seeing that. Wish OLN would diversify to include series like that.

I've hunted them raskels before. Not easy.

They've definately earned the name of "Grey Ghost". Anything under 1750 FPS is a handicap.  ;)

Very nicely done.  ;D

Hey, that video is sweeeeeet. I, too, would have loved to see that kill shot. After so many attempts, I was becoming aggravated with you as though I was on the hunt right along side you. I've been considering taking a bow out and try squirrel hunting primitive style, but after watching your video, I don't know if I'm more encouraged to hunt or less...  :P

lol my weapon of choice for the little suckers is a .17 hmr with a nice scope on it. shoot them a hundred yards away before they know your there. :D but once you shoot one you got to get him  and go hunt in another state where  they didnt hear the gunshot lol. ;D
