Snow hunt
« on: December 13, 2007, 05:01:53 AM »
Well I needed to go into town to check on my Win.1000 from Mike so I grabbed the ShadowSport, loaded her up in the 4X4 and headed in. I had made it about half way down my drive when I spotted this nutter sitting on a downed tree. The ShadowSport was already loaded with a Predator so I let the truck coast to a stop, shut it off and slipped out the door and setup on the hood. I layed the crosshair's on fusebox and waited a moment to see if he would bolt, he didn't seemed concerned .I gess he was thinking that at about 30yrd's I was no threat to him, WRONG! cause the Predator was already on it's way and on impact it cleared him off the downed tree and he fell with a few quiver's to the ground. I placed my winter baby back in the truck and stepped off some yard's, 27 from the hood to his resting spot and another in the icebox for supper. Oh no new Air rifle from Mike today so the nutter made up for it hehehe. Ed

You couldn't ask for a better shot placement, but I wouldn't exspect any less from you. PO said 5-6 days, but I guess they didn't realize how back in the sticks you are,hehe. Oh well another day won't hurt too bad.

Ed, I'm continually amazed how you can get the lighting at just the right angle to show off your shootin' iron and quarry. I hope you're compiling an album of these for a coffee table book ;~)

Great shot!
