Thanks. I wouldn’t have figured that out in a million years.

A bird flew into the path of a Randy Johnson fastball and disintegrated. (Animal rights people were actually claiming that he aimed for the bird.)

Bird got in the way of a fastball.

I think it was a pigeon that flew right into the ball thrown by Randy Johnson...

Thanks to you all. I watched it over and over and was simply mystified.

The additional details/info are fascinating. The people watching that game will never forget it, I daresay.

And so you’d never hit 3 geese in one shot either.....?

Mossberg 12 gauge with turkey choke and 3 1/2 inch magnum turkey loads. I shoot them routinely at 70 yds. Waited till the 2nd tom was behind a tree before I pulled the trigger on the 1st. 2nd tom just had to peek his head out as I shot. One golden BB in the head and he was as dead as the 1st.

It happens.

I killed a rabbit with a golf ball once.........

I shot one once that was on the run. Drew my.22 pistol and plunked him. The two guys I was with were amazed.

(It was pure luck)

In the old days....they used guns to kill massive amounts of geese.

Now a days...that's illegal.

As far as killing three geese with one shot...IMO, that's not good aiming or hunting. Not sure it's illegal though....Depends on the bag limit and regs where you are hunting...

This turkey hunter...only had a tag for one. I think he's a moron.

Of course I think most Politicians are morons....

Impossible. A lesser pitcher maybe, but... how could any bird see and think fast enough to be able to fly into the path of a pitch by the Big Unit?

I might be mistaken but IIRC he had to pay a fine or pay off PETA as they went into their usual hysterics over it. The fine I’m unsure of but PETA spazzing I remember pretty well.

Thanks for the tip. Actually I would like to see more of the batter’s reaction. Clearly not what he was expecting!

Yeah...stuff happens.

I had a hunt for Merriam's up in So. Dakota a couple years ago...but 4 Tom's kept circling around each other...in some trees. I never had a good shot...so I didn't take it.

Later that morning..I called in two Tom's..and my buddy and I doubled. Was a great hunt!!
