My brother and I were out shooting yesterday. We were at one of the local ponds walking in for a duck.

Up gets a common snipe and blam my brother drops it at about 50 yards. He walks over and picks up his prize and all of a sudden the snipe takes flight again out of his hand.

I was watching this from across the pond. My brother looked confused for a second but then raised the gun again and this time put it down for good.

I couldn't believe it. It was really weird. Its tough enough to hit a snipe but to shoot one pick it up and then shoot it again. I wish i had it on video.
