almost pulled a NO NO
I looked up from my book and discovered 3 Sandhill cranes walking down the trail towards my feeder. I was very excited as I felt sure they are not often harvested with bows. I don't even think Chunky has one of those. Everything was working out . The Video camera was on record and zoomed in on the biggest bird as they fed not 10 yards in front of me. As my bow came up tp 3/4 draw my mind was whirling. " pick a spot" ...."dang that's a little target".... "where is the kill zone on a Crane?".....I told myself to time the shot for when he reached for another kernel of corn he would be stretched out and I could send the arrow in where his neck hooked to his body and out his egg hole . That should wreck him out no matter where his goodys are. "OK next bite of corn"....."Corn....Cranes = Geese=Ducks= migratory game= Ticket. I let down and an just watched as they spent 20 minutes eating my bait. I Almost not only shot a Crane over bait but videoed myself doing it.
