First time in 3 weeks I was able to make it over to the pecan farm. It has been dadgum hot and I did not expect to see many, if any ground squirrels. At 8:30 a.m. it was climbing past 85 degrees.
I missed the first shot (I pulled the trigger with my whole arm, rather than the finger tip - it has been a while, remember?). The next 8 shots were good for 7 crunches. It was a day of doubles and a tripple. I would pull up to a brush pile, shut off the atv and wait for about 60 seconds before I started the squirrel distress call. Like magic, Squirrels would pop up like they were spring loaded. Pop- crunch, pop-crunch. Wahoo! What a fun day. I lost count around 25-26 take downs. I am not at the level of Hajimoto, nor Bob_O, but the action was hot and heavy.
The farmer stopped by to talk a bit, and watched me hit a skull/ear shot at a decent range. He is happy with the work we have put in and has asked us to keep putting the smack on his over supply of rodents. Ok, I know I still need to get a side shot camera adaptor. The only photo I took...
