    Hey everyone, I thought I would share my hunt from yesterday with everyone. I have shot plenty of birds with a shotgun but I have been trying to get one with a bow for a few years now with its share of ups and downs. I finally got it done yesterday though. I hope you enjoy the video!

    Congrats man! Nice video! I did have a good laugh watching you hang onto him. I thought he was gonna pull you into the brush! Well done and patience pays off! By the way, what broad heads were you using? They looked like Bullhead but don't think they were.

    They are the Solid Broadhead Company D-Cap head. I love them, they are super tough and sharp and fly great. They are not the cheapest it there but I don't see any problem shooting multiple birds with each head.

    Thanks! No they are certainly not the cheapest at $65 for 2. But they do look really durable and with a 4" blade, man that's huge!

    Loved your video but the tractor or compressor running in the background audio was annoying as hell

    Yeah Im not sure what happened there. I had an issue with my microphone that I had not had an issue with up until then. There was a lot more neat footage that I couldnt use because it was even worse. I was pretty bummed out by it.

    Really good video, except you probably didn't make any points with PETA, lol.
    When it was in Slo-mo, it appeared you hit the 1st (closest) one also. Did you? Or was that splatter from the bird you got? just curious.

    I don't think I did. He ran off and
    was just inside the woods for a bit. I'm pretty sure I killed that bird 2 weeks later.
