Nice story, and a good dinner to boot. I once shot a grouse while deer hunting. This was more than a few years ago; all wood arrows. I tipped a couple well used arrow shafts with cheap Ben Pearson tool steel broadheads that were fairly light. While still hunting in Capital Forest I saw a grouse on a tree limb, so nocked a cheapie and let fly. I thought I missed as the arrow rattled through tree limbs far away. And then the grouse, tipped over and dropped to the ground. The cheap broadhead had cut its throat, and the bird was bleeding out. I don't even remember if I saw any deer that day, but had ruffed grouse for dinner.
