Great start for the year!
« on: October 30, 2013, 10:27:21 PM »
So here is how the year is starting for me.....Yesterday at the in-laws for dinner and pumpkin carving decided to take my .22 for a walk out back to check on the chickens.  Pond out back in the farmers field usually produces a coon for skunk.  Lip squeaked for ten seconds and two reds came in full tilt....shot the closest one 65yds with the .22.  As soon as I i hit her she yelped and screamed for a few seconds and went down and two more came in but no shots at em.  This evening went out for two quick sets with by brother-in-law to show him some of the basics...first set called in a gray that hung up then bolted cause a yote showed up and din't offer a shot.  Second set behind gradpa's house and two yotes came in to puppy distress but hung up in the thicket.  While waiting and watching those two a third snuck in and the TC Contender .223 barked!!  Big male down....hope this year continues like this!!!  My brother-in-law now has the fever heehaw!!!  Happy hunting all and keep your powder dry!
