lol good job . i remember when i shot a crow on the fly with my recurve and a target point . i bragged on that shot for about 20 years  lol good thing i had witnesses because the proffesional deer hunters will call you a liar on them shots  lol hell it ain't my fault they cant shoot a deer at 20 feet standing still eatin corn  lol

They make or used to make these weird clover leaf things for arrows to shoot birds with.  I can hit what I'm aiming at most of the time but a dang bird I aint never tried lol.

Since I have never foolled wwith cooking a dove I I just topknot all the feathers off. Then cut the breast meat out. did those tips have 3 or 4 cable or wire loops? I think they're called snaro.

Yes that is what were and you had to shoot them with a slower bow like recurve for them to stabilize or that was my experience
