Re: Woodchuck Hunting

If you do then don't bother to read here any further. My hunting ethics fall somewhere between Tecumseh and Ted Nugent. If you kill it you must grill it. If you are shooting them just for reactionary targets then thats just plain gay, what kind of thrill of the hunt can a groundhog possibly give, they are fat and slow and do not run off when approached.Kind of the equivalent of trying to fuck really, really fat women in the bar, some cats do it but its just wrong. I pull my bike into my yard that has a 113 inch S&S motor with no mufflers and they don't even flinch. I don't want to hear the excuse you shoot them to protect cattle thats just bullshit. If you shoot them for the red mist they produce its time to join our armed forces and varmint hunt something interesting. </div></div>
I must be slippin', how did this fuck's post get under the radar.......
Livestock breaking legs ain't a damn bit funny, nor a damn bit healthy for a farmer's income, it's already thin enough as it is. You don't just run a broke leg cow down to the vet to get a cast put on it like you do for Whiskers The Cat, you have to kill 'em, dead, gone, not worth a nickel. Does he have any idea what it costs to replace a good milk cow, or a prime bull?
We don't pasture cattle much at all (TIC) in alfalfa fields here, which is a groundhog's favorite fodder, but we do occasionally drive farm machinery around them to make hay (that's livestock food, in case this city slicker don't get it) for the winter. Has this douchbag ever broke a wheel off the front of a tractor and had to dig deep down in the pocket to fix it RIGHT NOW because you need it RIGHT NOW? Does he think that shit is free or something?
Or....has he ever been thrown off of a moving tractor and nearly killed by the disc mower because he hit a chuck hole you could bury a volkswagen in? You don't run this stuff slow to make for a nice smooth ride, you run as fast as your equipment will work....because good weather doesn't last forever, and time is money.
This isn't the same thing as running over mole holes in the backyard with the Cub Cadet. The grass we mowed this year first cuttin' was as tall as the tractor, seeing chuck holes is basically impossible. Sure, you can remember where they were last year, but the damn things have this funny little quirk, they multiply and dig more damn holes.
The only good chuck is a dead chuck....targets of opportunity. Kill the fuckers cause they simply need killin', the red mist is just a feel good bonus. Worthless animals that cost a man too much time and money that he simply doesn't have.
Wrong my ass, they ain't no better than those damn lamb/calf killin' coyotes.....kill 'em all.
Urbanites that ain't got a clue, do crack me up though........if they only knew where their groceries come from.
