Groundhogs

Farmers at home used to have me start shooting them about this time of the year. They ate the crap outta of the beans. They wanted 'em all gone...but even with a long shooter that was nigh on to impossible where I lived. When they took out all the hedgerows it sure did for them pretty permanent though Got a minimum of a buck each to shoot 'em. Highest I ever got was 10 bucks for one. He was a real hog though. He ate over an acre of beans all by himself. He ate most at just barely can see and for 20 minutes in the evening. He even came out on a nice moon bright night...according to the farmer. Shot him at just slightly over 300 yds. Left a very thing groove in the mound where he came up. 1/2 inch lower he would have been safe..at least that time.
