I was walkin my property in lufkin thur mornin n jumped a snipe. Its been many yrs since iv seen a snipe. Is the snipe hunting story a prank ur son was trying to pull on u? Iv been told when i was young of goin snipe hunting n using a burlap sack and illuminating the back of the sack to attract the the snipe n cause him to fly into the sack n gettin caught, but when i got older, i was told it was a prank/joke. Is this the case myles?

Yes Charles. Its a prank that your buddies usually play on youngsters or city folk.

They put ya out there on cold cold nights with a sack and a dim light. Usually tell ya they are gonna go around on the backside of a thicket and push some your way.  In the meantime ......everyone thats in on the joke heads back to the warm fire and indulge in your favorite coke a cola and good laughs.  Evil

Everyone always makes jokes about "Snipe Hunting" but it's a real bird. I dont believe it has a season for it though.

 ok, so it is a snipe by nickname. I looked up both the woodcock and the snipe and they are 2 different birds, but iv always heard the bird in the pic called a snipe, but its actually a woodcock according to Wikipedia

Woodcock is type of bird via Webster.

Have only heard them called by the names Mike listed above my whole life.

After a case of cold Dr.Pepper and freezing your rear off for couple hrs waiting on your buddies to flush a few your way......

You may want to call them something else.  Haha.

I had no clue, the only time I had ever heard of a snipe was when I was watching one of them Disney movies with my little niece and nephew
