What critters have you taken with trad?

For me:
Deer
Squirrel
Armadillo

Missed a few bears, hope that changes this year.

I know some of you gents are bona fide killers! Let's hear it!
 
Oh. I forgot to mention one. Few years ago I killed a trout in the creek. :eek:

Short list for me too - I'm trying to get the Trad list up to the level of the gun/compound level this year and next ;)

Rabbit
Squirrel
Chipmunk (pest control in the garden)
Armadillo

I believe I'm going to get a deer this year - I've killed a bunch with compound, but still haven't connected with a deer with a trad bow.

I'm really crossing my fingers for a chance at a bear this year too

Wow this may take awhile. I’ve been shooting trad since high school back in the early seventies. May be easier to list what I haven’t killed. I haven’t killed an alligator. I haven’t killed a fox squirrel. Otter I haven’t shot. I think that’s all.
My list of kills are:
Beaver
Raccoon
Possum
Ground hog
Grey squirrel
Deer
Turkey
Bear
Coyote
Rabbit
Goose
Wood duck
Dove
Armadillo
Several types of fish
Turtle
Rattlesnake
Bobcat
Grey fox
Crows
Skunk
I’m sure there’s more but my old feeble mind can’t remember anymore

The wood duck is probably the hardest animal on that list! With a blind?

No came swimming down the creek. Actually have taken several. Hardest would be the three bobcats I’ve shot while deer hunting. They are wired tight.

Deer
Rabbit
Squirrel
Raccoon
Woodchuck
Sasquatch

The sasquatch came in after running through the forest all night with 19 other people, pounding on trees with baseball bats, and screaming at the top of my lungs. Odd, but it worked. Lol
