varmint so far
« on: July 19, 2010, 07:49:42 AM »
how many varmints this year so far have you got? I have not had the time to go out with my airguns for hunting. There nothing to hunt up here in tarpons springs(no water  like in st.pete or clearwater).

Three red squirrels, one big gray squirrel and three crows. I'm in Maine and I live within city limits so a air rifle is all I'm leagally allowed to use.

Since I moved into a city from out in the desert.
Not a lot bothering me.
Except went out in the ack yard this weekend and saw ghopher mounds.
Looks like we are going to have a sniper weekend comming up with the pellet rifle.
screw up the mounds and set up the shooting rest on a couple of 50 cal ammo cans and lay down to read for a while till he pops his head out to fix the hole and take him out with the rifle already set to the hole.
It's a waiting game I usually win.

3 chipmunks this year (27 total over 3 years). 
The difference between people who do stuff and people who don't do stuff is that the people who do stuff do stuff.

man, i need to get a car or go up north to see some varmints.  We have alot of non-native(which are open for any kind of shooting). I hopeing this year to get a few Skunks,Raccoons,Beaver,Coypu,Armadillo and whatever else i can get.

i have been hearing about reported sightings of Capybara,Gambian Pouched Rat and Prairie Dog in FL and someone told me they saw a Gambian Pouched Rat up near New Port Richey which is not to far from tarpon springs.

Only had my Benjamin Super Streak for a couple of days.....the first was for sighting it in.  Since then I have taken 7 pigeons, 14 blackbirds (with the gold eyes and really noisy calls) and one dove, by accident...was behind one of the pigeons and the .22 caliber pellet went thru the pigeon and killed the dove also. =-(
I love to shoot.  500 S&W Mag, 480 Ruger Taurus RB, S&W 686 Stainless, 10mm Witness.

I've got to try that gopher trick. I've even had them in my barn. They Coyote dig for them. So do my dog and it leaves big holes in my pasture & hay field.
