Saw the first groundhog today
« on: March 11, 2007, 04:14:06 PM »
Was driving down the road this morning and saw the first pig of the year out along the RR tracks and guess what , NO rifle , thought about taking the truck after it and desided better of that , as i just got it back from the body shop a couple months ago .  ::)

Time to start keeping the 223 or 243 under the back seat .  ;)

Strange timing, my friend Barry up in PA wrote me in his daily e-mail to me today that he too saw his first one of the year tonight while out driving home.

I saw my first one about a week ago but not in a place where I could shoot it.  I need one for coyote bait.
