just-A-snap 1,269 Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 The long wait was over; wind if any was from yesterday’s food, minutes spent hugging fences, bushes, and the odd tree in a flanking move, time well spent. The large buck rabbit was still stuffing himself, stopping every now and then to take a quick Butcher's, satisfied no danger was at hand back to chomp, chomp. Heart pounding in chest and ears, always amazed that none but myself can hear it. Mince Pies somehow reverting to 20/20 Vision spotting Two Gnats Making Whoopee. Whiffs received as if that of a hunter from Thousands of Years past, the effects of Forty Seven or so Years of Smoking nowhere to be seen or had. Forgot just how many smells are in the countryside. Thousands of different sound bombarding my Loaf, a loud animal groan can be earwigged as the Gnat finishes. The buck stops his chomp, chomp, and looks around to see where the rapturous noise came from, for just a split second I think that I have been Sussed but no satisfied he goes back to chomp, chomp. The Laser Range Finder finds its way to my boat race and mince pie, range found and transferred to scope. Settle down to a comfortable kneeling position, breathing slows and is under control, safety off as the rifle slowly engages Bugs, like in a dream everything slows to a stop as finger makes its way and finds the trigger. All comes together and the trigger is squeezed, thump lead hits the target, for a billion of a second What The F*** Was That can be seen in Bugs Eye. He hits the field pole axed, two or three twitches and all is over for old Bugs Bunny. What was it? Was it .177 or .22? Frankly I don't give a damn the job gets done. I go to pick up Bugs feeling good and hand stretching. Sh*t just a bloody dream. Absence of Strength in my hands and arms is still there, one more day to hopefully take two more steps forward, old Bugs Bunny will always be there, just follow the yellow brick road in and one day I will meet you there. All the best Quote Link to post
