ok, well i shot it, but she's quite the lucky charm! we went out to find my arrow from my deer. took my 1928 model 12 16 gauge just in case we ran in to some turkeys as it's turkey season. we parked at my coworker's place and walked down the driveway to her parents place. they're in hawaii, so no one has been shooing the turkeys off with a broom. there were no turkeys in the yard, so we headed behind the barn. sure enough, there they were! i told anya to stay in the yard and stepped another 20 feet or so and popped one of the hens. our fall season is beardless only. anya didn't seem to mind the shotgun blast, but she didn't want to get too close to the bird.

so, with the turkey sorted, we headed back up the driveway to find my arrow. 30 yards off the driveway it was laying in plain site on top of the grass. didn't even have to search. what a day!
