Whistle arrow for hunting
Pat B:
I think whistleing arrows were used for hunting but for small game or birds. When used in conjunction with a skipping arrow the whistler was shot into a flock of ducks mimicing a hawk. The ducks would light on the water for protection and the skipping arrow was skipped across the water at the ducks. With small game a whistling arrow would cause a rabbit to become motionless to protect itself from a hawk giving the hunter time to take a shot at the rabbit with a hunting arrow.

I knew i would get some intersting responses here on that. ;D
I dont have issues getting deer in General, but this one property gives me fits with its open fields. I have called and decoyed deer in there using blinds, but it is the one place i can stalk until my heart is content, and shoot does. Our land is a buck management area with no stalking. :(
The small game application is interesting
The real deal is trout season isnt open yet, and deer is over
I need a project!

Might be good for big groups of ducks though, especially if you have multiple archers.
