I've enjoyed the thread a lot. PN, I love that stock everytime I see it.
Yesterday was our last day. I set up in the early AM in a patch of big oaks. Soon as it got light, one popped out a hole, leaped to the tree I was sitting against and started coming down. When I raised the rifle, it froze, and at the shot, it leaped about 15 feet to another tree, hit the ground and high-tailed it into the scrub. I was cussing my point blank miss, when another one popped out the same hole, and the whole thing repeated.
Did manage to get one later in the morning....
Wonder how much a small game out of state permit costs in the show-me-state?
