Imagine, if you will, a big dumb farmer trying to catch a pheasant in a flight pen that's shorter than him. Said flight pen is built of rough cut 2x4's. The roof netting supports are rough cut hemlock, as well.
The skillset here is bending over, getting the particular bird you need to fly up and hit the roof netting where he stalls and you grab him mid-flight. Sometimes a little burst of speed is necessary.
If your focus on the bird, timing, and speed are all just right, you can tell you didn't catch the bird when you wake up laying in the mud, looking up at the trees.
Yes, it leaves a mark.
