Timelord 0 Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 I was getting worried that my rifle would stay a tree rat virgin for some time, until I found out that the 2 acre woodland on my new permission was actually mine to shoot on. After nutting a few bunnies before dark, I wandered into the wood to see Loads of woodies do the off giving me the knowledge of their roosting spot After saying to my shooting buddy "there must be loads of tree rats in here as the oak tree are in abundance but they don't seem to be here today " 2 of the feckers appeared from nowhere my mate could not get on quick enough and I THWACKED them both with my S-TYPE Unfortunately after climbing over the gate from the woodland one of the tree rats slipped out of my game pouch on my jacket So the photo only shows the larger male one instead. Rounding the evening off we popped the lamps on and went THWACKING wabbits Shooting certainly beats surfing the web anyday Quote Link to post

I had a really good laugh the other day, I was sat in cover with the three mutts and shot a crow in a tree, as it fell to the ground I let the hounds go, Lurcher got there 1st, then the Shar Pei and finally the Rottie who just flattened them all and grabbed the crow and tried to eat it in one go , just walked off and left him to it and could hear him coughin and spluttering as he ran after us thinkin he'd been forgotten Toying with the idea of selling most of my kit at the minute as I seem to use the Stealth near enough everyday, that's .22. Then I'd keep maybe just one .177 to use for a change Quote Link to post
