Thanks everyone!
Amos has been such a good pheasant dog, I thought it wouldn't hurt to give him a chance to see if he could locate my bird. Although I have shot quite a few birds with my wheely bow over the years, this one means the most to me. The bird looks like a drowned rat in the picture and all three of us looked and felt the same way. I switched back to shooting traditional about a year ago and it sure is more rewarding doing it the hard way.
