Nice  :O

Did you use one of these?

Greens, have you ever watched the movie 'Never Cry Wolf'?  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lg-qIUuA2qk

It was a Disney movie from 83.  One of Disney's best.

Both my grandparents on my dads side are Shawnee.  It's good to see you keeping your Heritage alive.

I enjoyed how the Eskimos contained their laughter at the thought of eating tundra mice, good idea.   :cheers:

I don't hunt myself.

But I do watch other people hunt, these guys primarily.

Just thought I would share a few pictures of our latest weapon of mass destruction. It is a crossbow made from a leaf spring suspension arm from an old vehical. It has been angle grinded to shape and strength we desired. The metal is some form of treated steel.
 Accuracy hold well past 20 yards with little to no drop. Max range is untested as yet but somewhere in the region of 200 yards when fired at 45 degrees, or maybe more. Penetration at 20yards is very fatal. We need pliers to get the tip out of wood and it will punch through sheet steel like butter. The ugly bastard holding it is yours truly.

(NOTE: That is one big image not seperate little ones. Click the above link or save the image to desktop to see the full size pics with captions)

The whole thing is home made. We used a welding tourch, angle grinder and a handsaw along with screwdrivers and a little carving knife. My friend Robert from the czech republic is responsible for the idea and the excelent craftmanship of the trigger mechanism and other fixings. The trigger works beautifully, with minimal pressure required to fire. Cocking the bow is not easy. Some of us can do it against our chest happily, but for those who are a little weaker in the arms there is a loop to put your foot through on the front to aid cocking. The metal brace above the trigger is to hold the bolt in place when shooting upwards or downwards. It also ensures the cord contacts the bolt squarely everytime.

Thought some might enjoy seeing what us poor folk who can't have guns get up to in our spare time. I will try to get a video of shooting it if anyone is interested. It is brand new, and as yet has not killed anything at all.

The only time I shoot anything is at the range, or a rare skeet shoot.   :aok  DC frowns at anything else...

love falcons, too bad Falconry is illegal in Australia, USA here I come!

Bummer about the Australian restrictions...  American falconry is highly regulated, but the envy of many countries world-wide from what I hear.

I just got home from two weeks of falconry meets in Kansas.  A week of eagle falconry, followed by a week at the North American meet.  It was a blast.  I took my redtail and was successful hunting jackrabbits with her, which was very challenging but very fun.

I hunt with firearms too, but have mainly transitioned over to birds now.  I still enjoy hunting with firearms or archery equipment, I just don't have much time for it.  I'm lucky to get out for more than 15-20 days/year, because I have my birds out 3-5 times/week.
