The funny part is after I posted this I went back out to do some more target shooting and there I saw another one up in my target tree and got that one too.

About $hit myself when they hit the ground

1st time luck
2nd time skill - hehe

LOL Chucky.. That bug almost reminds me of the Rice Beatles in South East Asia.. When it monsooned they would fall outa the sky. I had one hit me once while I was on a work stand and it almost knocked me out...:) and almost off the stand.. Hit me on my forehead and dang did it hurt..:)

If it what I think it is it's called a Cicadidae. The ones we have here make a high pitch squeal. Way to go Chucky I hate those things I see them rarely but hear them all the time.

Good Shootin Chuck !



I really hate those things, they sound like hi-tension lines on a humid day.

: Good shootin' Chucky

even though it looks kinda icky.  I can honestly say that I'm glad we don't have big ones like that in Colorado!

We would be happy to send you truckloads of them from Kansas!

: No thanks Ron

We have enough pest's to keep us busy here.  From cougars to coyotes to rodents and snakes but thanks!

Perhaps you folks there could use a million or so catus?

Nice!  Send them to LongIslandhunter.  He 's always looking for critters to shoot and eat  :-)  
He 'll probably need a few more to make a stew though, heheh  

Yeah those things are a nuissance.  They say that they come out of the ground like every 7-10yrs in the millions and destroy crops and make so much noise they drive you crazy.  If I had them, I 'd shoot them too.
