To the right are our grapes and blackberries, we moved the beans to the garden closest to the house so they couldn't get to them so easily. Attached File |

Got a third groundhog in the same spot as the last two. This one was at 73 yards and took a 17gr TNT from my Savage 17HMR to the ear. Attached File This is the damage they've done to the implement shed, the retaining wall outside has starting collapsing in where their hole is: Attached File I was rushing to get out on the deck and get the phone recording video so the video is poor but you can hear the hit decently well. The hog is in blue: Attached File Video of groundhog 3 |

Another groundhog came out today, first time I've seen a little one this season. It was eating the raspberries when I crawled about 40 yards away. I didn't realize I had left the scope on 6x instead of 14x and being a second focal plane that was enough to make my 75 yard zero about an inch high at 40 yards. You can see the leaves above the hogs head get hit when the shot goes off and I miss : First shot at #4 I saw him again about 30 minutes later but the dog startled him and I lost track. So I went around the garden and came up behind the shed where the hole is. I suspected to find him further back into the shed where a large hole is but when I rounded the corner he was sticking about halfway out of a new hole about 4-5 feet away from me. The 17gr HMR hit him in the eye and took out the other side of his face. Here you can see the hole and him down in it : Attached File Attached File |

Must have been a young one, she crossed the road about 150 yards in front of us when we were looking for pigs. I gave a few barks and my boy started a distress call with his mouth. Saw a flash through the trees so I stepped up to a high spot and sure enough she was trying to see what was making the sounds, can't believe she didn't see me or react to me. Attached File Every time I put these 110 V-MAX into something I’m more and more pleased. She was only maybe 20-25# but that exit was very close to fist size. Attached File |

This was the last female I got back in late June on the farm in MD. The shot was around 60 yards. The rifle is a Ruger RPR in .243 shooting 95gr Remington Accutips with a YHM Resonator K. Video clip taken from my phone

15 yds LOL! She caught me by surprise in my open ground blind when she snuck up to my right about 3' away, paused and slowly walked out about 15 yds then turned and walked back at me within 10' of my blind. After the second time she did this I decided to let her have it before she jumped in my lap.  |

I got a male last night. My thermal DVR died about 3 minutes before shooting him. He was maybe 50 yds away. I think my ANVRS got the footage, just not very good quality.  ETA: DVR didn't die.  Dec 23 2021 Coyote Hunting w/ WP PVS14 and Iray MH25 HMT |

When you're dead, you don't know you're dead. Hence, dealing with this fact is not difficult. It is only hard for those still living around you.....It's the same when you're stupid.

Little late posting this, from a month or so ago. We put 10 down in 1 night  Attached File |
Another one made it to the trees, never to be seen again.  Hit or Miss? Coyote makes it to the tree line. |

Was able to get out with a buddy. He has a Triji but his safe wouldn't open, so he had to use my back up gun lol. I shot 2 females and he shot a big male. The male had a half eaten rabbit in his mouth when he was shot. Big boi musta been hangry! We heard a lot more than we saw. We saw two others that wouldn't come in. I guess if you shoot two of their buddies, they don't want to come play. I used my Aimpoint PRO on both of my kills. Shots were at roughly 150 and 250yds. His kill was a laser at 25yds.  Big boi where he laid
