Backyard hare
« on: January 11, 2009, 12:14:25 AM »
After a quiet Sunday arvo surfing the net and keeping the kids happy, I went to the kitchen to start an early dinner, it was 5pm, i looked through the window and not expecting anything, I saw two hares ;D


Excited i swiftly moved to the gun locker and unleashed my newly acquired FX cyclone

Having never shot a fury critter with an airgun, that & the last couple of spotlighting trips have been cancelled dew to rain, I was a bit nervous as I quickly snuck round the back in between the shed and the water tanks

Slowly I edged my gun round the corner, the crappy temporary bushnell banner scope gave me enough light to work with, I aimed and snapped a round off just down and back from the eye

the result:




I aimed at the other hare but he was to quick for me, next inspector gadget, next time!

Top work, cccombo.
Those air rifles must be really good.
Living in a country town I regularly see hares on the edge of town or in newly developed housing areas where there are still expanses of grass.
A good hi-powered air rifle would definitely do the trick.
Either that or a bow.
