He said it scared the carp out of him lol smile

Ya corn deer feeders tend to feed more racoon than deer. The biggest racoon we have ever taken over many many years was 65#'s and that is a very big big coon. Dad had to put a 10" extension on the stretcher to dry out the hide. I bet I have an old picture some where of it. So old I was 4 years old in the picture and just turned 43 today. Wheres the time go.

Cheers Don.

There seemed like a cottontail or jack rabbit under every bush and I have a picture of my friend reaching down and picking up a live rabbit(They were seriously competing with the cows for grass). My friends wife liked to eat cottontails so he walked outside of camp and shot 9 in a ~ 10 minute hunt..... There were so many prairie dogs it wasn't even sporting to shoot them they let you get so close. We turned an 8 year old boy loose with a single shot .22 and he had hours of fun. The mule deer were not afraid of us(7 days out of season). They would come in and water at a pool 50 yards from our camp and would walk(not run) 75-100 yards ahead of our noisy jeep driving through the pastures. Your not going to believe this but I actually shot and killed two bobcats with one 12ga shell a 1/2 mile from camp. A HUGH animal population EXPLOSION followed by a CRASH to near zero in following years. I have lots of pictures.



Looks like we are on the upswing again(date is wrong on the camera). Picture was taken after Thanksgiving.

Quail waiting for the feeder to go off.....
