Snipe hunting

[bowfishin fool]

We have my bothers twin 7 year olds, 8 year old, and 10 year old kid… who we have talked into snipe hunting…

Sitting on the front porch my wife explained her plan to take them and how they were going to go about it.. I’m utterly flabbergasted. Shocked. Disappointed. Sad. Confused. And second guessing everything!

Her plan is to walk a ways into an open field, with working flashlights… sing the snipe in close and them hug them while they pluck a rainbow feather.


Who the hell hugs a snipe!

I tried to tell her, in front of these very impressionable children that the most effective way was to walk into the deep brush and hold a trash bag between their legs while I scare them out of the brush with a pan and a stick. (Of course we will get lost and their flashlights will quit working.. )

Please advise a proper method. I’m beginning to understand why college campuses have “safe zones”. This is the Coddling of the American mind!

Rainbow feather?

Since when are wives involved in the planning of a Snipe hunt? Hmmm

You have the plan that is the way to go

I would tell her to go get the grease hot for fried snipe while I took them hunting.

Not sure of the proper method but without video this isn’t happening

Good ole snipe hunt. This should be part of every childhood.

I remember my first Snipe hunt. You are doing it right. Your wife does not know what a snipe hunt is, since she probably never been on one.

Do it right! Get some scratchy tow-sack bags, if you can.

Hope she's better at making sandwiches, then she is at hunting snipe.

Nope, I did many snipe hunts with my younger cousins. It is more fun to be the guide, than the guided!
