Ialso use it when taking out first time hunters, now that is funny. You've got to shoot and wound em, then it gets real easy.

Dragon fly was the smallest...
I literally laughed out load when I read about the dragonfly. Did it drop him straight away or did you need a follow up shot?

good one , I told you all, that it would't take long for payback. Hey ZA how far was the shot , on that porker. I know they have pretty thick skin, and a heavy skull plate. Pretty impressive for the 204, keep it up. TT.

The dragon fly was charging. Actually, he just landed on a target while I was doing a trajectory test, so he became one with the cosmos at 50 yards. I have the pic some where...

If he was charging, then you had no option but to save yourself. Good work Bow, you live to shoot another round!
