So after 10 months my first kill is a....

Sparrow. Lol.

Now before anyone gives me crap, they're an invasive species, it's legal, and I actually do eat their breasts.

I was 20 yards away and saw a few in my dove feeding box. They're so skittish that I didn't even think I'd be able to draw my bow back, but I slowly did and took aim.

BOOM. HEADSHOT. The varmint tip knocked it out so hard it was dead instantly. I have a picture if anyone's interesed, lol.

 

I just want to see the breasts.

 

At least you didn't feed it to your dog!

 

ssssswwwwwaaaaaaacccccckkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Thats great! Can't believe you still have that! Haha

 

Getting your own food is great. Now on to bigger things!

 

I'm finishing my hunter safety follow up class on Sunday! Finally!!!

 

Care to share your sparrow recipe?

 

Hitting a sparrow from 20 yards is some good shooting.

It will make a deer look big as a house.

 

How did you know it was 5 1/2 years old and what did it score?

 

I like to soak mine in olive oil overnight then BBQ them seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic. This is how I cook dove. Sometimes I'll put some soy sauce and it gives it an asian type flavor.

 

Because it was dumb enough not to fly away! No score...

 

That's awesome. I have never heard of someone eating sparrow. Enjoy.

Thanks, someone appreciates how hard that was! That sparrow looked like a humming bird from 20 yards haha

 

Isn't it against the law to bait sparrows?

 

I'm almost positive you can take them any way, because sparrows and starlings are an invasive species. I don't know if I "baited" that one, but I have seed all over my back yard. This one just happened to be in a box.

 

I was just pulling your leg! Still very good shooting.

 

Lol, thanks
