Looking at what I wrote from what he said, are you sure it'd be a good thing for both of us to be on here? ;)
:lol:
Working 2 jobs doesn't leave enough time for hunting! :(

Well of course your better half should join the forums. It'd be cool to see him competing alongside you. ;)

Nope. They don't have an airborne (A) or ground (G) score like some of the other birds. They're similar to the turkeys, just a normal score. They can flee flying or running and I'm honestly not even sure if the scoresheet specifies which one they do if you kill them on the move. Regardless, you don't need to kill them airborne. I like to keep my ROE fairly simply. The goal here is to have you all kill as many as you can and show me all your biggest. Only real disqualifier is if you shoot them >30m. And in my short experience with them, it's easy to get them close. A couple clackety-clacks on the little wooden box and those roosters come in fast and fussing... and not always from the direction you think they should be coming from. Sneaky little buggers, but super fun to hunt so far. I love 'em.
Thanks for answering my question. Thanks for what's going to be a fun comp. But mostly, thanks for all the good info.

Unfortunately, this competition only just started at 7:00pm EST. One of the ROE in this competition (as well as in all of BCKidd's competitions) is that hunts must start after the competition start time and end before the competition end time. Since this hunt was started before the competition even began, it is not a valid hunt. The good news though is that because it's not a valid hunt for the competition, it wouldn't have used up one of your attempts. You'll still have all 9 of your attempts, this hunt and the bird you entered already just won't count.

Also just so you're aware, you can post more than one animal at a time for this competition. Improvements are allowed. That means you can enter your 3 best grouse from your first attempt (as long as they were killed at <=30m) and you can replace any or all of them with bigger grouse if you manage to shoot even bigger ones on later attempts. Hope that makes sense!

Glad to see you playing along! Good luck 8-)

Time to get me a nice "Auerhahn" or better even 9 of them :lol:
Too bad they are nearly extinct over here (down to less than 1000 specimen) and i never saw one in the wild. :(
Nice they added it to the game so i can atleast see one there :D
May the best Faultier win. :mrgreen:
Good luck @ all
